Ranging from America’s insatiable consumerism and household economies to literary subjects and America’s attitude toward waste, here Berry gracefully navigates from one topic to the next. He speaks candidly about the ills plaguing America and the growing gap between people and the land. Despite the somber nature of these essays, Berry’s voice and prose provide an underlying sense of faith and hope. He frames his reflections with poetic responsibility, standing up as a firm believer in the power of the human race not only to fix its past mistakes but to build a future that will provide a better life for all.

Life and love can be profoundly expressed in so many ways. And when that love is gone it can be expressed in a deep soulful way. It can put a thought on your mind that youre thinking about all day. It can make you want to cry a river or bay. Sadness can touch your heart and penetrate it until you cry. It can make you say: why oh why'. And it can make you sigh. Maybe it can even make you wonder if youre letting life pass you by. Joy can put a giant smile on your face, and lift your spirits high. When touched by inspiration it can stimulate you to change your outlook in life, or just the art of poetry can be a delightful form of entertainment. Laughter can put enchantment in to your heart when it encompasses you. Love can be expressed in so many ways. And when that love is gone it can make you cry for days, and days. Love isnt just something you feel. Its something you show. And as the years go by you watch it grow. Love can blind you or show you the way. Thats what I heard someone say. Inspiration is something you can never get enough of. Its sort of like love. When youre sad, and when your melancholy and blue, inspiration can be your glue. Sadness can be so profound. It can be expressed in ways that show how you feel down. Tears and fears can cause sorrow. It can make you ask someone for joy you can borrow. When youre low, and when youre down only your heart can feel how sad you see yourself as. It leaves you wondering if the feeling will pass. Opening this book is your journey down that road.

Following the Second World War, a massive land reclamation project to boost Japan’s rice production capacity led to the transformation of the shallow lagoon of Hachirogata in Akita Prefecture into a seventeen-thousand-hectare expanse of farmland. In 1964, the village of Ogata-mura was founded on the empoldered land inside the lagoon and nearly six hundred pioneers from across the country were brought to settle there. The village was to be a model of a new breed of highly mechanized, efficient rice agriculture; however, the village’s purpose was jeopardized when the demand for rice fell, and the goal of creating an egalitarian farming community was threatened as individual entrepreneurialism took root and as the settlers became divided into political factions that to this day continue to struggle for control of the village. Based on seventeen years of research, this book explores the process of Ogatamura’s development from the planning stages to the present. An intensive ethnographic study of the relationship between land reclamation, agriculture, and politics in regional Japan, it traces the internal social effects of the village’s economic transformations while addressing the implications of national policy at the municipal and regional levels.
