I was in the mood to reread some Wendell Berry. This one has 6 short stories about the “membership” of Port William. I like all the stories, but the most profound one is about an old man walking his farm, thinking about his family, people he has lost, & the end of his life. I was trying to remember all the family connections—luckily, there‘s a family tree & map in the back.

I was at my local bookstore last week & saw a new edition of a favorite Wendell Berry book. I couldn‘t remember though if I already had it—either the book or if the stories were in one of his other books I own. The problems of a book lover, right? 😂 I went back to get it today & got to use a $10 coupon. I love the cover.
