About the Book

Wayne Pease is a poet, playwright, and traveler who has lived in Greece, Germany, and England. His play, 'The Clown, ' was chosen for The First Bay Area Playwrights Festival. Another, "The Poetry Reading, ' was performed at the Fureka Theater in San Francisco, and a third, 'Grandma, ' at the Westpark Theater off-off Broadway in New York. He began his career as a forest fire lookout in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California in

1962. Cloud Watcher, a fire lookout's book of days, combines the events

of several fire seasons into one, thus making it an ideal diary and parable (all the events happened, but not in the order given) in the tradition of Thoreau's Walden and Basho's Journey Into The Far North. The lookout-poet lives through storms, fires, and tourists, during which time he struggles with himself over the future course of his life as budget cuts and internal strife change the Forest Service. He talks with friends, writes letters, watches TV, and plays his harmonica to bears and chipmunks, alone most of the time except for the company of his cat, Moonlight. At the end of this season he is forced to take a step he has never taken: to confront authority. Names have been changed, time revamped, and places altered to protect the innocent and the guilty, and to give his story the air of a fairytale.
