Citizenship Papers by Wendell Berry

5.0

I have been meaning to read this book for a few years. I picked it up on someone else's coffee table and thought "oh this is for me". But I didn't get around to it until last week and now I'm grateful I came back to it when I did. A good introduction to Berry's Agrarian ideals, but also surprisingly, bizarrely, sadly resonant essays written in response to America's overreach after 9/11 that feel like they could have been written this week. This will probably be one of those books I randomly send to people because, really, you should just read it.
