About this product
Product Information
Winner of the PEN/Diamonstein-Spielvogel Award for the Art of the Essay Winner of the 2022 Southern Book Prize An Indie Next Selection for September 2021 A Book Marks Best Reviewed Essay Collection of 2021 A Literary Hub Most Anticipated Book of 2021 A Country Living Best Book of Fall 2021 A Garden & Gun Recommended Read for Fall 2021 A Book Marks Best Reviewed Book of September 2021 For the past four years, Margaret Renkl's columns have offered readers of The New York Times a weekly dose of natural beauty, human decency, and persistent hope from her home in Nashville. Now more than sixty of those pieces have been brought together in this sparkling new collection. "People have often asked me how it feels to be the 'voice of the South,'" writes Renkl in her introduction. "But I'm not the voice of the South, and no one else is, either." There are many Souths--red and blue, rural and urban, mountain and coast, Black and white and brown--and no one writer could possibly represent all of them. In Graceland, At Last , Renkl writes instead from her own experience about the complexities of her homeland, demonstrating along the way how much more there is to this tangled region than many people understand. In a patchwork quilt of personal and reported essays, Renkl also highlights some other voices of the South, people who are fighting for a better future for the region. A group of teenagers who organized a youth march for Black Lives Matter. An urban shepherd whose sheep remove invasive vegetation. Church parishioners sheltering the homeless. Throughout, readers will find the generosity of spirit and deep attention to the world, human and nonhuman, that keep readers returning to her columns each Monday morning. From a writer who "makes one of all the world's beings" (NPR), Graceland, At Last is a book full of gifts for Southerners and non-Southerners alike.

Received The Visual Dictionary of Star Wars, Episodes IV, V, & VI. I don't know Starwars too well. Saw this at an Antique store. Opened it to find Darth Vader. It peeked my curiosity, and I liked how it was descriptive in detail. After some thought, I purchased it online instead. When I received the package, I eventually opened up the book for the first time and saw Darth Vader's description again. The seller is good, and recommended! As described. 🌎 ⚡°✩⁺˚⋆🚀⋆⋆｡˚ ˚☽˚｡⋆ ⋆⋆˚｡˖‧◯‧˖｡˚⋆₊⋆🌍⋆ 🌓

Correction checked my footage: I got Darth Vader today 6-10-24 for today's post. Previously on 6-8-24 footage.I got Creatures Page (noticed Space Slug), next page, Jabba the Hut, then R2D2 page.About Jabba the Hut. I have a memory I can't forget over 10-15yrs unsure of date. In a Second Life game, Jabba the Hut came to my character Messmer. Jabba said, "You'll be my slave" , "You have no choice!" True Story. I don't like GREEN! Yuck! Good Seller! Though. Brought back memories.
