and shares his perspectives on many topics in the paper, on the blogs and in many other publications.
In his spare time, he authored Crunchy Cons: The New Conservative Counterculture and Its Return to Roots.
Wendell Berry is the agrarian essayist and poet. Berry's basic political idea is that the condition
of contemporary Americans is one of homelessness. We are all nomads now, alienated from our places
and traditions. He is neither a man of the left or the right (though elements of both camps find
consonance in his thought), nor does he offer an ideological program. But his political thinking,
while non-systematic (he is a poet), is about trying to overcome that homelessness, and fostering
a sense of loyalty to place, which entails accepting limits. What does Berry have to say to us -
Republicans, Democrats and independents? How do we find our way "home"?''
