A Timbered Choir: The Sabbath Poems 1979-1997
The public performance of poetry, writes Wendell Berry in the preface toA Timbered  Choir, has become vogue in the English-speaking world.  Yet, he counters, his poems are created in  silence and solitude, which may be the best way to read these thoughtful lyrics about country life, verses  populated by trees, horses, rivers, and stars. This volume gathers nearly 20 years' worth of Berry's Sabbath  poems, written after Sunday morning walks across the fields and bottomlands of northern Kentucky.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
