A late fall drive in New England takes an unexpected turn when Frank and Cici Avery—young and unhappily married—see a large snapping turtle on the road ahead. Should they rescue it? Or leave it be killed. This short story, first published in the 1950s, is presented with an original introduction in which Matthiessen highlights the effect his fascination with nature had on his career.
Half-leather, bound in green Morocco and green paste paper.
Late in the Season is the second title in The Thornwillow Libretto Series, a publication of "little books" (the literal translation of the Italian word "libretto") designed to be a small beautiful space in which writers can make an enduring contribution to the timeline of American Literature.
