Wendell Berry: What matters? (2010, Counterpoint) 4 stars

surprising range, a joy

4 stars

Berry on economics, internal colonialism and extraction, the love and work of restoring a place to be home. Several essays from post-2008 ("by destabilizing the relation of money to goods, a financial system usurps an economy") combined with earlier linked ideas ("the thing that troubles us about the industrial economy is exactly that it is not comprehensive enough, that it tends to destroy what it does not comprehend, and that it is dependent upon much that it does not comprehend.")
