This book was interesting on many levels - what happens to a family when the need to write a story on an urban farm begins to take it's toll. I learned about the real cost of "localism" and, although I grew up in a rural environment, some things about farming that I didn't know. Worth a read if you are willing to watch the romanticized idea be destroyed by reality (but in a interesting manner).
