Exploring literature, art and popular culture, writer and professor at Western Oregon University Henry Hughes discussed the delightfully slippery world at the confluence of piscine and human existence in his presentation “The Sensual Fish” at 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 2, 2019 at the Rialto in downtown Bozeman, Montana. Through fishing, Hughes crosses boundaries of race, ethnicity, gender, and class, and learns important life lessons as he interacts with people who share his love of fishing and enjoy the sensual connection between the salty pleasures and tensions of human and fish life. His exploration of the romantic aspects of fishing is sure to delight the audience. Henry’s stories aren’t just for people who fish. They’re for anyone who enjoys human connection and a good story. Each year, the MSU Trout and Salmonid Lecture Series hosts a world-renowned speaker and offers a free lecture event to the MSU and Bozeman communities on the subject of trout and salmonid studies.
