| Summary, etc. |
"Sparkling description of a year of beekeeping on a 100-acre farm in the Missouri Ozarks, an operation run by one woman alone. After 30 years together, Sue and her husband Paul Hubbell divorced. He left her their farm, equipment and varied wildlife, including 200 beehives that (during the year described) produced 30,000 pounds of top-grade honey. For the first three years after Paul left, Sue was ""out to lunch,"" unable to read anything but the lightest froth. And then one day she jelled again: "". . .I set about doing all the things that one does when one returns from lunch. I cleared the desk and tended the messages that others had left. I had been gone a long time, so there was quite a pile to clear away before I could settle down to the work of the afternoon of my life, the work of building a new kind of order, a structure on which a 50-year-old woman can live her life alone, at peace with herself and the world around her."" Peace came not only from beekeeping for 10-to-12 hours daily for three of the four seasons. It came also from closely watched creeper frogs, spiders, coyotes, copperheads, owls, chickens, opossums, caterpillars, mites, termites, bobcats, bats, deer, flowers and trees, among other growing things. Her book more or less alternates chapters between beekeeping and wild things. And none of it is academic, though Hubbell has a trained eye." - Kirkus review, downloaded from the internet, March 31, 2021 |

| Summary, etc. |
"Written by a remarkable women -- fifty-year old ex-librarian and survivor of an unsettling divorce, a beekeeper and self-taught naturalist living alone in the Missouri Ozarks -- this magical book is 'elegant and lovely' (Peter Matthiessen), 'enchanting and engrossing' (Lewis Thomas), and has been compared to Aldo Leopold's 1949 classic A Sand County Almanac In essays as fresh and entrancing as the wilderness they describe, Sue Hubbell testifies to the wholeness and serenity available to those who live 'in an untrimmed state.'" -- from back cover |
