Picking up my held mail (from the Ireland trip posted about elsewhere here) from the Post Office today...hope mine has the remarque! Wonder how many of those he did, and what the particular significance is? I know from the interview I posted a link to earlier than he helps with rehabilitation, but I'm curious to know what significance it held for him r.e. this book, if any.
EDIT: Never mind, just revisited that interview, and it explains it:
"Pelican Harbor Seabird Station, where Thomas Harris has been a regular visitor for years, appears in his new book, “Cari Mora.” [shows Harris holding an owl]
Harris and I met on a bright, muggy morning in the parking lot of the Pelican Harbor Seabird Station, an animal rescue center on Biscayne Bay that features prominently in his new novel. Cari works there as a volunteer, caring for injured birds.
Harris, a nature lover, has been visiting the center regularly for 20 years. He’s brought orphaned squirrels and an injured ibis there, and he took a wildlife rehabilitation workshop, learning how to intubate a distressed animal by practicing on a dead possum. “Everyone else got a bird,” he says."
