I wish I could sit across the table from these two with a slice of pie and hours of their stories. Thank you for the video and for the focus on rural America.
I've been re-reading several of Berry's works and am now on Fidelity, the five short stories that simply blow me away. He is the finest.
The best!!! I'd love to get up to Kentucky!!!
I cried through every story in Fidelity. All of Mr. Berry's books are amazing but those 5 stories wore me down and lifted me up.
Such a rich conversation .
