Peter Matthiessen: An Annotated Bibliography
Another Goodreads review of this book addresses the difficulty of reading this cover to cover. We know the outcome- everyone in this book dies:). It is organized alphabetically by name, so I limited myself to one letter at a time thinking it will be 26 sessions. I borrowed this from the library mid-pandemic with a relaxed due date schedule. That helps. While this can be a depressing encyclopedia of tragedy, I prefer to look on the bright side. It's like watching a low grade b-movie that only ends when the book is closed. Many of these stories reflect the pressure of an industry in which success is fleeting and relationships volatile. The book reminded me of a Hollywood tour I took in the 90's called the Grave Line tour. (Now called Dearly Departed Tours). Many of the Los Angeles celebrity entries in this book include street addresses where the celebrity chose to exit. Use Google maps to create your own grave line tour.
