RIP Peter Matthiessen

Peter Matthiessen was someone whose books I devoured back in the late 60's and 70's when I was a Marine Biology/Physical Oceanography student at Boston University. He had an outward exploration of places and cultures but also an inward exploration of self. He passed away yesterday -- the New York Times has an excellent obituary. Going to have to get some of his books from the library and read them again. Posted by DaveH at April 6, 2014 1:22 PM
