This week, Garrett reviews a classic of Appalachian Literature: FARMING: A HANDBOOK by Wendell Berry. This collection of poems and a short, poetic play was first published in 1971, and explores the relationship of a man to his land, and a man to his family. Berry's love for Appalachia is visceral and pervasive, inviting the reader to commit to the health and wellbeing of this region and give what they can give to help it thrive.

Knott explores the tense, troubled relationship of an Appalachian to the land he lives on and the forces that damaged it. He examines the ways that generational trauma bleeds downstream until at the resources exist to halt its trajectory. And finally, he looks forward with hope and determination, committing to a better future regardless of adversity.
