(First Edition, Signed Bookplate) For more than 50 years, National Humanities Medal recipient Wendell Berry has been telling us stories about Port William, a mythical town on the banks of the Kentucky River, a unique literary exploration of unforgettable characters living in a single place over a long time. In this collection of 20 stories—Berry's first new fiction since Andy Catlett in 2006—the settings range from 1864, when Rebecca Dawe finds herself in her own reflection at the end of the Civil War, to a story of 1991, when Grover Gibbs' widow Beulah attends the auction as her own home place is offered for sale. We are pleased to offer this tenth Port William book in a first edition with a bookplate signed by Berry.
