- Description
- Peter Matthiessen's fiction reveals a deep sensitivity to nature and humanity. Often chronicling the fates of outlaws, sailors, and smugglers, his work is chiefly focused on frontier life and the exploration of distant, exotic lands. Matthiessen's lyrical, atmospheric writing is character-driven and bleak, but always affecting. His work, often set in the Florida Everglades or the West Indies, demonstrates that humans are unpredictable, treacherous, and surprisingly tender. Matthiessen brings this same depth to his peripatetic nonfiction, featuring endangered animals and far-flung locales. Start with: Shadow Country (Fiction); The Snow Leopard (Nonfiction)
