The Art of the Commonplace: The Agrarian Essays by Norman Wirzba, Wendell Berry

5.0

I rarely say this but I seriously wish I owned this book. Wendell Berry is quoted by absolutely everyone in the local and organic food movement because he is opinionated, eloquent and thoughtful, and has been for much longer than the recent "locavore" movement got started. This is a book of essays, beautifully written essays that take a serious stand. So serious you can't read too many in a row or your head starts to spin. I gave this book back to the library after 3 essays but I'll take it out again or maybe even acquire my own copy.
