Chuckanut Radio Hour featuring Robert Michael Pyle, author of Magdalena Mountain
Village Books is pleased to welcome Robert Michael Pyle to the Chuckanut Radio Hour for the first time!

In Magdalena Mountain, his first and long-awaited novel, the award-winning naturalist proves he is as at home in an imagined landscape as he is in the natural one. At the center of this story of majesty and high mountain magic are three MagdalenasMary, a woman whose uncertain journey opens the book; Magdalena Mountain, shrouded in mystery and menace; and the all-black Magdalena alpine butterfly, the most elusive of several rare and beautiful species found on the mountain.

Robert Michael Pyle grew up and learned his butterflies in Colorado, where he fell in love with the Magdalena Alpine and its high-country habitat. He took his Ph.D. in butterfly ecology at Yale University, worked as a conservation biologist in Papua New Guinea, Oregon, and Cambridge, and has written full-time for many years. His twenty-two books include Wintergreen (John Burroughs Medal), Where Bigfoot Walks (Guggenheim Fellowship), and Sky Time in Grays River (National Outdoor Book Award). He lives in rural southwest Washington State and still studies butterflies.

*Featuring musical guest, Lindsay Street!
