Buch, das gelesen wurde, sich aber in einem guten Zustand befindet. Der Einband weist nur sehr geringfügige Beschädigungen auf, wie z.B. kleinere Schrammen, er hat aber weder Löcher, noch ist er eingerissen. Bei gebundenen Büchern ist der Schutzumschlag möglicherweise nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Bindung weist geringfügige Gebrauchsspuren auf. Die Mehrzahl der Seiten ist unbeschädigt, das heißt, es gibt kaum Knitter oder Einrisse, es wurden nur in geringem Maße Bleistiftunterstreichungen im Text vorgenommen, es gibt keine Textmarkierungen und die Randbereiche sind nicht beschrieben. Alle Seiten sind vollständig vorhanden. Genauere Einzelheiten sowie eine Beschreibung eventueller Mängel entnehmen Sie bitte dem Angebot des Verkäufers.

"Q: How does a heap of lumber become a home? How does a man become a father? A: With a clumsy hammer and an improvisational heart. Anyone who has searched to find a place on eart--which is to say, everyone--will find comfort and laughter in this book, and new understanding of what it means to be a human being."--Kathleen Dean Moore, author of Riverwalking and The Pine Island Paradox, "Goodrich's writing style is straightforward and his descriptive powers impressive. His prose has been tended with great care."-- Oregonian "Very honest, deeply thoughtful and very open, The Practice of Home is an inspiration and a guide."-- Statesman Journal, "It's pungent and pleasureful, succinct and personable--full of good juices. God bless him!" -Edward Hoagland "So fervently is the possibility of and hope for a good life embraced in this book, reading it at times brought tears to my eyes. Here is a wry and poetic glimpse into a man's home-making. May we all be so embedded in family, community and place -- which is to say, home -- and so heroically dedicated to them. Goodrich's life makes sense." --Janisse Ray, author of Ecology of a Cracker Childhood and Wild Card Quilt: Taking a Chance on Home. "The Practice of Home is a celebration of the work of hands; a meditation on the ecology of sacred spaces; an argument for one's dwelling as a vital nexus of the communal, the familial, and the private; and above all a resounding confirmation that beneath the apparent lunacy of building one's own house lies the deep and satisfying sanity of a life that is literally home-made. Goodrich is a shrewd observer who writes with humor, humility, and the expansive economies of a poet." -Ted Leeson, author of The Habit of Rivers "Memory and loss are the foundation for Goodrich's powerful vision of what it means to be a husband, father, and citizen. As "Knot-House" comes into being, we get a glimpse into a life lived with humor and hard-won wisdom, through dark Oregon winters and out the other side." --Marjorie Sandor, author of Portrait of My Mother, Who Posed Nude in Wartime: Stories "In essays that are rueful and funny and humane, Charles Goodrich brings his poet's sense of rejoicing and his gardener's sense of hope to a patch of thistle-infested land. Gently, brilliantly, he shows us that home is a way of life. Anyone who has searched to find a place on earth--which is to say, everyone--will find comfort and laughter in this book, and new understanding of what it means to be a human being." --Kathleen Dean Moore, author of Riverwalking and The Pine Island Paradox, "Q: How does a heap of lumber become a home?

Anyone who has searched to find a place on eart--which is to say, everyone--will find comfort and laughter in this book, and new understanding of what it means to be a human being."--Kathleen Dean Moore, author ofRiverwalkingandThe Pine Island Paradox, "Q: How does a heap of lumber become a home?

The dvd set showed up in good condition just as they described it to be. The price was great and the seller did everything needed to make it a perfect seller and buy. Would buy again from them.
