Description

In 25 richly diverse essays, the author of Heart's Desire writes of landscapes and emotions, memories and aspirations, with delicacy, humor, and extraordinary perception. "Hoagland is a crank in the best (and often wittiest) sense, the sense of Swift and Twain and Mencken".--Mirabella.
