Peter Matthiessen was a naturalist, explorer and writer. His works of fiction include At Play in the Fields of the Lord, Far Tortuga and the acclaimed 'Watson Trilogy'. His explorations resulted in many fine works of non-fiction, among them The Snow Leopard, The Cloud Forest and The Tree where Man was Born. He died in 2014, aged 86.
Peter Matthiessen is an original and powerful artist who has
produced as impressive a body of work as that of any writer of our
time. Both as a novelist and as a naturalist he has immeasurably
enlarged our consciousness
Matthiessen-is a writer of great integrity, who lives the life he
writes, and yet whose scathing critique of our all-consuming,
all-exploiting society is also realistic
