Berry talks to the reader as one would talk to a next-door neighbor: never preachy, he comes across as someone offering sound advice. He speaks with sadness of the greedy consumption of this country's natural resources and the grim consequences Americans must face if current economic practices do not change drastically. In the end, these essays offer rays of hope in an otherwise bleak forecast of America's future. Berry's program presents convincing steps for America's agricultural and cultural survival.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDamage --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHealing --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA remarkable man [Nate Shaw] --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHarry Caudill in the Cumberlands --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA few words in favor of Edward Abbey --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWallace Stegner and the great community --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA poem of difficult hope --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStyle and grace --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWriter and region --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe responsibility of the poet --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGod and country --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA practical harmony --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAn argument for diversity --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat are people for? --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWaste --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEconomy and pleasure --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe pleasures of eating --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe work of local culture --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhy I am not going to buy a computer --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFeminism, the body, and the machine --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWord and flesh --\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNature as measure\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ingram","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47266961653981,"sku":"9781582434872","price":24.08,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0455\/3339\/7144\/files\/DSC00282_1bc640b4-84b3-4ffc-910a-1a5172a1e8f9.jpg?v=1768431695","url":"https:\/\/bernalcutlery.com\/en-au\/products\/what-are-people-for-wendell-berry","provider":"Bernal Cutlery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
