traveling to Costa Rica to surf and explore, or looking for light but profound verses about life away from its shores, this book is a perfect companion, offering readers a generous serving of food for thought and humorous glimpses into everyday life in the land of ¨pura vida.¨ Harlow F. Newton Jr. a.k.a. ¨the Carver,¨ and ¨el Abuelo,¨ is at times deep, at times utterly romantic, and at times surprisingly witty. So sit back and relax into this unique collection of poems, short stories, and thoughts by a bigger-than-life individual who lives by his own rules and who fuses together his life of multiple identities into timeless insights and verses - and if you are fortunate enough to visit the land of ¨pura vida¨ in person, don´t forget to stop by his carving station, a well-known part of the local Dominical landscape.
