I first discovered Russell when my close friend, Sarah, and I were living in a farm that had belonged to a recluse who worked for the CSIRO and bequeathed his property to the RSPCA the year the CSIRO commenced testing on animals. His farm was filled with amazing literature, everything from Russell to a little known Plant Hunters of Tibetwhile his musical taste ranged from Vaughan Williams to Japanese Water Music. Russell is similarly expansive in his writing in this classic book of provocative essays. Then read all else he has written.
