Synopsis
Hannah Coulter, wife of Nathan--both of them perennial characters in Wendell Berry's series of novels and stories set in Port William, Kentucky--is now an old woman looking back on her life. As she ponders her childhood, her two marriages, her children, and now her aloneness--and tries to accept the fact that the family farm may be taken from her--she also ponders the changes time has wrought in the community where she has lived for all her 80-odd years.

Industry Reviews
"Atmospheric and quietly moving: a tale that manages to avoid outright bathos as it makes its way along the narrow boundary between memoir and nostalgia."
Kirkus (09/15/2004)

"In delicate, shimmering prose, Berry tracks Hannah's loves and losses....Beneath the story of ordinary lives lies the work of an extraordinarily wise novelist....[Hannah's] compassion enlivens every page of this small, graceful novel."
Publishers Weekly (10/04/2004)
