Berry's Sabbath poems embrace much that is elemental to human
life--beauty, death, peace, and hope.In his preface to the
collection, Berry writes about the growing audience for public
poetry readings. While he sees poetry in the public eye as a good
thing, Berry asks us to recognize the private life of the poem.
These Sabbath poems were written "in silence, in solitude, and
mainly out of doors," and tell us about "moments when heart and
mind are open and aware."Many years of writing have won Wendell
Berry the affection of a broad public. He is beloved for his quiet,
steady explorations of nature, his emphasis on finding good work to
do in the world, and his faith in the solace of family, memory, and
community. His poetry is assured and unceasingly spiritual; its
power lies in the strength of the truths revealed.
