ABOUT THIS BOOK: The National Book Awardâwinner Patti Smith presents a treasure box of a childhood memoir about âclear unspeakable joyâ and âjust the wish to know.â A great book about becoming an artist, Woolgathering tells of a youngster finding herself as she learns the noble vocation of woolgathering, âa worthy calling that seemed a good job for me.â She discovers often at night, often in nature the pleasures of rescuing âa fleeting thought.â Deeply moving, Wool- gathering calls up our own memories, as the child âglimpses and gleans, piecing together a crazy quilt of truths.â Smith introduces us to her tribe, âa race of cloud dwellers,â and to the fierce, vital pleasures of cloud watching and stargazing and wandering.(Publisher).
