The Last of Your Objects Today, Richard Powers

Listen to an extract from the brilliant bewilderment of Bill Wilderman's son. Richard Powers talks about a river in the Smokies that is such a feast for all his senses. He describes how sitting by it can put him in a trance-like state, almost like being still and attentive at the same time.
