The rich work in this volume reflects the development of Berry’s poetic sensibility over four decades.
 
Focusing on themes that have occupied his work for years—land and nature, family and community, tradition as the groundwork for life and culture—The Selected Poems of Wendell Berry celebrates the broad range of this vital and transforming poet.
