Reviews / Votes
"Like Jack Kerouac he seeks source and renewal in new geographies and in the act of travel with its inevitable encounters and mysteries. He gets inside and outside things. Nothing passes him by, he is a seer, a person who looks, who retains an abiding curiosity and sympathy with special people and places." -- David Meltzer.More details
