  • What a great talk!

  • thanks for your comment

  • I've been asleep at the wheel & just found this. As you know, it's wonderful. Thanks very much. WB's thoughts on community (around 20:00) are especially challenging.

  • thanks for the comment, I so enjoyed Wendell's reading about the war.

  • I love his character of gratefulness. I'm from KY too. Can't help but noticing that some of the things actually grieves him comes out as humor and causes the audience to giggle, but his passion is obvious in his face. I've never met him but love him. God bless Mr. Berry. And thank you (and God bless you) for sharing this video.

  • Great stuff. I only recently learned of this man's work, through the poem 'The Peace of Wild Things', which was given to me and my classmates at a Waldorf Early Childhood Education training

  • Living in Kentucky my entire life, I'm ashamed to admit that I just recently discovered the treasure that is Wendell Berry. I just bought a book of his essays today, and I look forward to what he has to say. Thanks for the video.

  • I like his criticisms of computers/ the internet, I'd say I minimise my use of the interenet because of the outlook he presents, I personally finf the internet pathetic for communing compared with face to face.

  • i love his essay body and earth and the rise about a short canoe trip....

  • A fine man & a very very fine poet. More American's should be aware of one of their finest. Keep up the good work, Wendell. From an Irish songster.
