O knihe

REVIEW:
?It immediately draws from me the adjective 'genuine.'
Ruby is a wonderful creation, maybe a mosaic of more than one
woman. She has ?the gift? all right ? not only for healing with
roots and herbs and wise counsel ? but also for patience and for
love and steady affection. Such upright characters are
hard to draw convincingly; they go against the grain
of our skepticism. But when you get them right,
they are strong. What you have here is strong,
a memoir-chronicle about a kind of community
and a way of life not so well known anymore.
The ?retreat? to yard and garden at the end
is a kind of saintly benediction.?
~ Fred Chappell, poet, novelist, teacher;
Poet Laureate of N.C. (1997-2002)
