SynopsisPublished in 1967, we return to Port William during the Second World War to revisit Jayber Crow, the barber, Uncle Stanley, the gravedigger, Jarrat and Burley, the sharecroppers, and Brother Preston, the preacher, as well as Mat Feltner, his wife Margaret, and his daughter-in-law Hannah, whose son will be born after news comes that Hannah's husband Virgil is missing. "The earth is the genius of our life," Wendell Berry writes here. "The final questions and their answers lie serenely coupled in it."

  • A Place on Earth

    This is a lovely story of living in the Eastern part of KY in the mid 1900's. If tells of the everyday live and hardship of the people and what they had to go through with to take care of themselves and their families. Well worth the reading.
