Wendell Berry
What Matters: Economics for a Renewed Commonwealth
Counterpoint May 2010. Paper Back. New. Wendell Berry is not a formally trained economist though he is a great many other things: poet essayist social critic and novelist. In our estimation Mr. Berry habitually 'sheds light on ultimate questions in an excellent way' that's from the About Us page on our website not only in his writing but through his way of living--as a farmer philosopher teacher activist devoted family man and steadfast community member. And lest you think this blurb is little more than a paean to a man seeking no such thing we hold that what makes the man makes him particularly suited to propose a sensible though not uncomplicated solution. <p><p> 'My economic point of view' writes Berry in the first essay 'Money Versus Goods' 'is from ground-level. It is a point of view sometimes described as 'agrarian.' That means that in ordering the economy of a household or community or nation I would put nature first the economies of land use second the manufacturing economy third and the consumer economy fourth.' He goes on to say that America on the whole has replaced economy with finance to a catastrophic degree by confusing wants with needs. 'Spending is not an economic virtue.Saving is. Not-wasting is.' Berry decries usury and its destabilization of the relationship between money and goods. He goes on to criticize America's overemphasis on education it's been 'oversold overbuilt over-electrified and overpriced' laying out a sixteen point agenda to promote a long-term sustainable agricultural policy for both ecological health and true stimulation of our human economy for 'there is no good reason.to wish for the 'recovery' and continuation of the economy we have had.'<p> And that's just the first essay. The remaining fourteen include 'Faustian Economics' a recognition of limitation amidst the myth of limitless consumption a 50-Year Farm Bill proposing 'diversification detoxification perennialization and resettlement of our agricultural landscapes' and an argument for orienting the 'humanities' not around the careers of their practitioners but on the diversities of local cultures and landscapes within a beloved country. In 'Economy and Pleasure' Berry ruminates on the imperfection and frailty of an economy based almost entirely on the rule of competition holding up the ideals of community 'neighborly love marital fidelity local loyalty integrity and continuity of family life respect of the old and instruction of the young' as a vital sustainable way of life. <p> About half of these essays are reprints from Berry's earlier books <i>Another Turn of the Crank</i> <i>Citizenship Papers</i> <i>Home Economics</i> and <i>What Are People For</i> Possibly the most eloquent is 'The Work of Local Culture' a meditation comparing the making of earth in a battered galvanized bucket to a similar kind of accumulation--the thoughtful and active creation of local culture. Berry consistently insistently emphasizes the vital relationship between the land and the human community: 'If the local culture cannot preserve and improve the local soil then as both reason and history inform us the local community will decay and perish and the work of soil building will be resumed by nature.'

Wendell Berry
Window Poems
Counterpoint October 2010. Paper Back. New. Written at the Long Legged House Berry's cabin by the river the <i>Window Poems</i> feel like early work of a man testing himself and earning his way. These twenty seven short poems follow one on another rising and ebbing as Berry considers the world outside his window alongside the weight of his own convictions. Though he is widely known for the clear-sightedness of his essays Wendell Berry has always been a poet. There's an edge and a vibrance in these poems--a sharp ear for the way words rub and fit--that seem to have softened in his later work: <i>The wind's eye / to see into the wind. / The eye in its hollow / looking out / through the black frame / at the waves the wind / drives up the river / whitecaps a wild day / the white sky / traveled by snow squalls / the trees thrashing / the corn blades driven / quivering straight out.</i> Yet in keeping with the careful economy he strives to live by the words are not an end in themselves. They serve to help the writer find his way to meaning and more authentic being in the world he shares with all living things such as the birds at his feeder: <i>the man knowing / the price of seed wishes / they would take more care. / But they understand only / what is free and he / can give only as they / will take. Thus they have / enlightened him. He buys / the seed to make it free.</i> Originally designed and printed on a handpress with wood engravings accompanying the handset text the book itself is a testament to Berry's own attentive habitation.
