It?s a galloping, spontaneous book, on occasion within whooping distance of that greatest and sweetest of country books, Ivan Turgenev?s <em>A Sportsman?s Notebook</em>." ?Edward Hoagland, <em>New York Times Book Review</em></p><p>"His subjects are trees and brush, hired help, fences, soil, armadillos and other wildlife, flood and drought, local history, sheep and goats . . . and they come to us reshaped and reenlivened by his agreeably individual (and sometimes cranky) notions." ?<em>New Yorker</em></p><p>"If <em>Goodbye to a River</em> was in some sense Graves?s <em>Odyssey</em>, this book is his [version of Hesiod?s] <em>Works and Days</em>. It is partly a book about work, partly a book about nature, but mostly a book about belonging. In the end John Graves has learned to belong to his patch of land so thoroughly that at moments he can sense in himself a unity with medieval peasants and Sumerian farmers, working with their fields by the Tigris." ?Larry McMurtry, <em>Washington Post Book World</em></p><p>"<em>Hard Scrabble</em> is hard pastoral of the kind we have learned to recognize in Wordsworth, Frost, Hemingway, and Faulkner. It celebrates life in accommodation with a piece of the ?given? creation, a recalcitrant four hundred or so acres of Texas cedar brake, old field, and creek bottom, which will require of any genuine resident all the character he can muster." ?<em>Southwest Review</em></p> | ||
