He devoured early folk artists, picking up on the distinct vernacular of “ragtime blues, work songs, Georgia sea shanties, Appalachian ballads and cowboy songs.” And when he himself started writing, it was on the basis of the folk vocabulary he’d learned through song.īut he brought something else to his songwriting as well. Sounding like a true troubadour over a jazz piano arrangement, he begins with his deep love for Buddy Holly and Lead Belly, two early influences that opened his eyes to the vibrance and power of music that’s written with truth. But the Academy stipulates that winners must give a lecture within six months of the ceremony to collect their prize money, and Dylan slipped in a rambling, 27-minute ode to literature just under the wire. When awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2016, Bob Dylan responded in his traditional, nontraditional way: he gave no comment for two weeks after the announcement, ignored the Academy’s calls, didn’t attend the ceremony, and collected the award in a hoodie four months later.

Plants of Arizona by Anne Orth Epple (1997, 350 pages) is an excellent overview of Arizona’s native plants, contains color plates, general descriptions, and locations for each plant mentioned. It also includes excellent descriptions of climate zones and special sections on low water use, deer resistant, shade-loving, and wildlife attracting plants. There are some color plates, but mostly line drawings of plants. It is the definitive information source about common and unique plant varieties sold in western nurseries. Sunset Western Garden Book by Kathleen Norris Brenzel (2001, 768 pages) is the gardener’s best friend and focuses on cultivated landscape plants. Many of these books are available at our public libraries and all of them would be excellent additions for your personal library. This week’s column includes some of my favorite plant books that include pictures and/or drawings of the plants they describe. I can see these plants in my mind’s eye but this doesn’t help the reader to visualize the plants I describe. I often mention and describe plants in terms of size, leaf shape, flower color, and other features.

This is one of the most important films, and any cinema lover should see it at least once in their lifetime. I forgot you had a choice not to see it – plus I recently was reminded that the whole point of the movie is to guide us and comfort us – with its head-on exploration of the subject.
