             Hannah Coulter by Wendell Berry, a book recommended by another blogger I sometimes follow is well worth the time it takes to read this small volume. I was not familiar with Berry's writings which also include That Distant Land and Jayber Crow, but I'm looking forward to reading others. It's a simple story of a woman's love, sadness, grief, and perserverance  in a world turned upside down by World War II and beyond. Berry is very adept at hitting the bullseye of emotion with the lives of ordinary men and women. He weaves this tale through Hannah's memories. I highly recommend it.
