For thirteen years, Timothy lived in White’s garden. Here Klinkenborg gives the tortoise an unforgettable voice and keen powers of observation on both human and natural affairs. Wry and wise, unexpectedly moving and enchanting at every–careful–turn, Timothy surprises and delights.]]> 142506 3.62 175 48 2006 1081559 0316735515 9780316735513 10 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1180828439m/1081559.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1180828439s/1081559.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1081559.The_Rural_Life 3.69 39 142506 3.62 175 48 2002 243520 0226443353 9780226443355 5 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173065904m/243520.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173065904s/243520.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/243520.The_Last_Fine_Time 3.42 19 The Last Fine Time is a tour de force of lyrical style. Verlyn Klinkenborg chronicles the life of a family-owned restaurant in Buffalo, New York, from its days as a prewar Polish tavern to its reincarnation as George & Eddie's, a swank nightspot serving highballs and French-fried shrimp to a generation of optimistic and prosperous Americans. In the inevitable dimming of the neon sign outside the restaurant, we see both the passing of an old world way of life and the end to the postwar exuberance that was Eddie Wenzek's "last fine time."</div>]]> 142506 3.62 175 48 1991 243518 1585747262 9781585747269 1 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173065903m/243518.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173065903s/243518.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/243518.Making_Hay 3.50 8 MAKING HAY gives us an unforgettable glimpse of everyday life on the family farms of northwestern Iowa, southwestern Minnesota, and Montana's Big Hole Valley. In beautiful, deceptively simple prose touched with humor and affection, Klinkenborg evokes a way of life at risk, and weaves an unforgettable story of the richness of rural living.

Through her poetic vision, rendered in an array of vibrant hues, a mesmerizing tension emerges from an uncanny sense of the natural world's seemingly unnatural logic; Geesaman unearths the repetitive patterns that reside in these landscapes.

Geesaman's work is in the collections of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, and the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris, among others.

Photographer Steve Rosenthal has traveled throughout the northeast capturing the gems of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and tracing the evolution of church styles from the early, dramatically simple meetinghouse form through the changing patterns of Greek and Gothic revivals. His photographs capture the intrinsic beauty of the architecture while creating a world of rich order and rational light. He has frozen in time the New England buildings that may soon be—or have already been—lost in a chaotic, contemporary world.]]> 568020 4.40 5 2 142506 3.62 175 48 130182 3.31 123 26 2009
