I have not read The Snow Leopard, but I do have an ancient copy of Wildlife in America sitting just across the room from me.
I read it with great interest when it arrived as a Christmas present a few years ago.
It’s quite a gem.
And he’s not a bad storyteller either, as you’ll see in this clip.
Never trust a writer who is pretentious. Pretense is a cover for lack of talent.
