Fidelity: Five Stories by Wendell Berry

5.0

I picked this up as a placeholder while I waited for other books to arrive (books I needed to vet for book clubs). Which means I read this purely for leisure. There’s a trifecta of sorts just in the appearance of FIDELITY — Wendell Berry + short stories + the most perfect cover ever designed. There’s a biblical feel to the cadence of Berry’s writing that is so comforting, like coming home.
The second story in this collection, “A Jonquil for Mary Penn”, is one of the best things I have ever read.
