In like-new condition. "Given is Wendell Berry's first collection of new poems in ten years. As rich and varied as any before this book is divided into four parts. We begin with a collection of short occasional pieces ranging from political cautions to love poems and celebrations. Then follows a play in verse 'Sonata at Payne Hollow' a beautiful evocation of the lives of the painter Harlan Hubbard and his wife Anna. Over the past twenty-five years Mr. Berry has been at work on a long sequence of poems that has resulted from his Sunday morning walks of meditation and observation and this present volume concludes with eight year's worth of new 'Sabbath Poems.' For five decades Wendell Berry has been a poet of great clarity and purpose. He is a writer whose imagination is grounded by the pastures of his chosen place and the rooms and porches of his family's home. His work is one of devotion to family and community to the earth and her creatures to the memories of the past and the hope of the future. His work stands alongside WIlliam Carlos Williams and Robert Frost as a rigorous American testament."-from the front dust jacket flap. Shoemaker Hoard hardcover books
