Far Tortuga.

ABSTRACT:
(5 pp) Although this initially appears as an
adventure story, anyone who knows Peter
Matthiessen's work will be ready for much more, and
view the sparse writing and revelation through
dialog, as rhythmic as the sea itself. Far Tortuga
(1975), like his other works, is distinguished by a
love of nature, and an urgent concern that the
elemental harmony between man and nature is in
great jeopardy, as well as the belief in the
cyclic process of the universe.
