Peter Matthiessen: Open Thread
Last October, as our semester was just getting started, Matthiessen’s iconic Snow Leopard celebrated its thirtieth anniversary. It has remained a popular book, often in reprint, and the particular version that appears in the Reader is taken from a new Penguin edition that was made in honor of this 30th anniversary.
Anyway, to give notice: there’s a great radio interview with Matthiessen here from several months ago that talks about the Snow Leopard, 21st century environmental politics, and much else. I’ve also posted this audio link on the blog roll resources on the righthand side. Listen, if you can.
