Learn moreIn print for over fifty years, One Man’s Meat continues to delight readers with E. B. White’s witty, succinct observations on daily life at a Maine saltwater farm.
Too personal for an almanac, too sophisticated for a domestic history, and too funny and self-doubting for a literary journal, One Man’s Meat can best be described as a primer of a countryman’s lessons and a timeless recounting of experience that will never go out of style.
E. B. White (1899–1985) was the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of more than seventeen books of prose and poetry, an English language style guide, and the children’s classics Charlotte’s Web, Stuart Little, and The Trumpet of the Swan.
Malcolm Hillgartner is an accomplished actor, writer, musician, and Earphones Award–winning narrator who was named an AudioFile Best Voice of 2013.
Reviews
“Imagine narrator Malcolm Hillgartner sitting by a fire, pipe in hand and dogs at his feet, addressing a ‘gentle reader.’ There’s a quaintness to this audio collection from the late E. B. White…Hillgartner chose wisely: A fast-paced, contemporized narration would have undermined the writing…[in this] authentically preserved time capsule.”
“Modest in its size and presumptions, engaging in tone.”
“Great writing like White’s is timeless—a description that also fits Maine.”
“This remarkable body of writing stands today, after half a century, as one of the greatest books ever written.”
“It is a lively record of an active inquiring mind, whose sense of the ridiculous in no way impairs his appreciation of the life he lives and the people he knows…Half-farmer, half literary—he contemplates the world around him.”
