The World-Ending Fire: The Essential Wendell Berry

If you lack a reliable moral code, read Wendell. He sets the course straight. A little wordy for my taste (as an author), but the message is worth it's weight in gold (keeping in mind that wood is one of the rareset resources in the known universe).

Offre riflessioni non “mainstream” . In particolare fornisce all’idea della protezione e salvaguardia delle natura un approccio non ideologico ma basato sul buon senso

Think Little is just one of the essays in the collection. It's the one that I found way back in 1970 when it was written and published in the hippies companion The Whole Earth Catalog (amongst other places). I was sold on his ideas and have recently re-read it twice. Twice, because Wendell Berry's ideas about how the world is run, how agriculture is practised are as relevant today as they were when he wrote in 1970. Visionary writing can so often look misguided after half a century - this really doesn't because his views are now so evidently correct - well to me, and certainly to a great many others. I recommend that if you are interested, you should start by reading Think Little and consider it in view even of the recent Extinction Rebellion movement. Here is a man with a view which shows how things might have been and how they could be. It makes for inspiring and interesting, educational reading, even though, to my mind, there is faint hope of it coming to pass - but every little helps. His words and this work must be passed on.

Still 'walking through it' with Wendell! Very enjoyable so far! :)

Wendell Berry is a modern classic. I imagine that I'll reread this several times
