Product Information

A career-spanning collection of Bruce Berger's beautiful, subtle, and spiky essays on the American desert Occupying a space between traditional nature writing, memoir, journalism, and prose poetry, Bruce Berger's essays are beautiful, subtle, and haunting meditations on the landscape and culture of the American Southwest. Combining new, unpublished essays with selections from his acclaimed trilogy of "desert books"-- The Telling Distance , There Was a River , and Almost an Island -- A Desert Harvest is a career-spanning selection of the best work by this unique and undervalued voice. Wasteland architecture, mountaintop astronomy, Bach in the wilderness, the mind of the wood rat, the canals of Phoenix, and the numerous eccentric personalities who call the desert their home all come to life in these fascinating portraits of America's seemingly desolate terrains.

Reviews
Praise for Bruce Berger"There's geology, natural history, religion, desert rats, environmental issues, Mexican politics, music and adventure. There's disappointment and maturity and, above all, humor . . . Berger is clearly guided by the inner lizard that lives within all desert-lovers-scurrying in and out of crevices, basking upon rocks in the sun." - Los Angeles Times "With his naturalist's eye and poet's sensibility, Bruce Berger has written a book that will stick to the reader like cholla. Environmental witness-bearers are many, but precious few are those who can write this well." -Ted Conover, "Captures the myriad ways the southwest desert casts a spell ." -- National Geographic "Berger is a chronicler of desert life in all its forms, from the cactuses to life in the small towns of the Southwest. [ A Desert Harvest ] spans a career of over 30 years, leaving readers with an impressionistic picture of a distinctly American ecology ." -- The New York Times Book Review "When he hits the mark, there are few living writers more at home in desert country than Berger . . . Hit the mark he does here . . . Berger's essays in [ A Desert Harvest ] are pleasures to read." -- Kirkus Reviews, "When he hits the mark, there are few living writers more at home in desert country than Berger . . . Hit the mark he does here . . . Berger's essays in [ A Desert Harvest ] are pleasures to read." -- Kirkus, "A Desert Harvest renders Berger's travels across the Southwest and down through Baja California Sur with plenty of charm and a comic sense for the surreal , but it also leaps beyond: into questions of water use or the substance of time . . . The book places him among the best of past generations to write about the Southwest ." --Sean McCoy, The Los Angeles Times "Captures the myriad ways the southwest desert casts a spell ." -- National Geographic "Berger is a chronicler of desert life in all its forms, from the cactuses to life in the small towns of the Southwest. [ A Desert Harvest ] spans a career of over 30 years, leaving readers with an impressionistic picture of a distinctly American ecology ." -- The New York Times Book Review "When he hits the mark, there are few living writers more at home in desert country than Berger . . . Hit the mark he does here . . . Berger's essays in [ A Desert Harvest ] are pleasures to read." -- Kirkus Reviews " Cuts to the heart of the fierce and enduring attraction of the desert . . . A glowing appreciation for the landscape . . . radiates across Mr. Berger's A Desert Harvest , a sublime assortment of new and selected essays . . . [Berger's writing is] poised, magisterial." --Sam Sacks, The Wall Street Journal, "A Desert Harvest renders Berger's travels across the Southwest and down through Baja California Sur with plenty of charm and a comic sense for the surreal , but it also leaps beyond: into questions of water use or the substance of time . . . The book places him among the best of past generations to write about the Southwest ." --Sean McCoy, The Los Angeles Times "Captures the myriad ways the southwest desert casts a spell ." -- National Geographic "Berger is a chronicler of desert life in all its forms, from the cactuses to life in the small towns of the Southwest.
