Since 1960, Wendell Berry (b. 1934) has produced one of the most
substantial and consistently thematic bodies of work of any modern
American writer. In more than fifty books in various genres-novels,
short stories, poems, and essays-he has celebrated a life lived in
close communion with neighbors and the earth and has addressed many
of our most urgent cultural maladies. His collections of essays
urge us to think and act responsibly as members of a community-both
human and natural. Volumes of his poems seek to wed us to nature
and realign our vision with its mysteries. His growing Port William
cycle of novels offers us a fictional model for understanding, for
compassion, and for living in constant regard for others.
"Conversations with Wendell Berry" gathers for the first time
interviews with the writer, ranging from 1973 to 2006, including
one never before published. For readers acquainted with Berry's
work, this volume offers insights available nowhere else. It
reveals succinctly the main currents of his life's work. What
emerges is a citizen-writer profoundly affected by cultural crises
at home and in the world. Morris Allen Grubbs directs the Preparing
Future Faculty Program in the graduate school at University of
Kentucky, where he was a student of Berry's. He is editor of "Home
and Beyond: An Anthology of Kentucky Short Stories,"
