From the Porch features forty-four poignant essays capturing the subtle crosscurrents of life in Amber Nagle's beloved South. She shares true stories about her mother's chicken and dumplings, the transformation of a simple cedar tree into a dazzling Christmas showpiece, her adoption of a little blind cat, her long-ago fishing trips with her father, her learning the art of birdwatching from her mother, and a variety of other experiences. Memories and emotions spring to life through the author's keen descriptions and candor. This collection is a partial record of the author's life as she documents many meaningful moments and the the world around her. The result is a collection of stories rich in emotion, humor, and tenderness that reveals the human spirit at its best. Pull up a chair and get to know Nagle and her family through her writing.
