Best book I've read in a long time. Within the first few pages, I knew Wendell Berry was on my "must-read" list. A great example of good Christian writing. (Note: Not what would be called a "good Christian book").
Ron gave 5 of 5 stars to:
No Country for Old Men by Cormac McCarthy

Gruesome. The ending will make you want to shoot somebody. Provocative.

“I thought such awful thoughts that I cannot even say them out loud because they would make Jesus want to drink gin straight out of the cat dish.”
Anne Lamott

Anne Lamott
“Becoming a writer is about becoming conscious. When you're conscious and writing from a place of insight and simplicity and real caring about the truth, you have the ability to throw the lights on for your reader. He or she will recognize his or her life and truth in what you say, in the pictures you have painted, and this decreases the terrible sense of isolation that we have all had too much of.”
Anne Lamott

“You can safely assume you've created God in your own image when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do.”
