This book is not what you think it is. Or rather, it is more than you think it is. Here you will find stories not just about living on a small farm in the Georgia Piedmont but about life on that small farm. Ron Balthazor's close observation of the inhabitants of the land, from earthworms to armadillos, honey bees to black vultures, pea seedlings to soaring oaks, nurtures curiosity and wonder that invite even closer concentration and contemplation. These meditations on the natural world (both cultivated and wild) all, ultimately, point toward connection: between writers ancient and modern, humans and nonhumans, elemental forces and our beating hearts. Balthazor's ideas and stories are keenly crafted and disclose his deep interest in the connections hidden in the histories of words themselves. These chapters invite you into a year of discovering the holiness suffusing even the humblest parts of creation and reflecting on its implications for ourselves and others of all kinds.
About the Author: Ron Balthazor is retired from the faculty of the University of Georgia, where he was an award-winning teacher of Composition and Environmental Literature. When not playing drums with his jazz band, Balthazor is happiest when marking the seasons on the ten acres he tends.
