A poetic novel of despair, hope, and the redemptive power of work deepens an awardwinning authors grand Port Williams literary project.After losing his hand in an accident, Andy Catlett confronts an agronomist whose surreal vision can see only industrial farming. This vision is powerfully contrasted with that of modest Amish farmers content to live outside the pressures brought by capitalist postindustrial progress, and by working the land to keep away the three great evils of boredom, vice, and need.As Andys perspective filters through his anger over his loss and the harsh city of San Francisco surrounding him, he begins to remember: the people and places that wait 2,000 miles away in his Kentucky home, the comfort he knew as a farmer, and his symbiotic relationship to the soil. Andy laments the modern shift away from the love of the land, even as he begins to accept his own changed relationship to the world. Wendell Berrys continued fascination with the power of memory continues in this treasured novel set in 1976.[Berrys] poems, novels and essays . . . are probably the most sustained contemporary articulation of Americas agrarian, Jeffersonian ideal. Publishers WeeklyWendell Berry is one of those rare individuals who speaks to us always of responsibility, of the individual cultivation of an active and aware participation in the arts of life.
