Renowned writer and poet Wendell Berry is back after a five-year absence with an all-new collection of beautiful poetry. Usually I’m a prose and essay gal, but this collection grabbed my emotional side in a way that makes me want to use this as my seasonal stocking stuffer. In his distinctive voice of reason and appreciation for the workings of the natural world, Berry continues his argument for a more conscientious world. —Adrienne Mages
