âA sensitive, powerful love story about a man on the cutting edge of life.â âRichard Brautigan  In Farmer, Jim Harrison tells the story of Joseph, a forty-three-year-old farmer-schoolteacher who suddenly finds himself at a crossroads. Forced to choose between two lovers one a tantalizing young student, the other his beautiful childhood friend he must also decide whether or not to stay on the farm or finally seek the wider, more worldly horizons he has avoided all his life. Farmer is a wondrous blend of insight, storytelling, and the authorâs uncanny ability to evoke the mysteries and beauties of the natural world.  âA beautiful novelâ, Farmer serves as the perfect introduction to Harrisonâs remarkable insight, storytelling, and evocation of the natural world (The Boston Globe).  âA quiet triumph . . . Yes, it is the old story again. Taking it and making it new, as Harrison has done, is a miracle on the order of the loaves and fishes. But then so are all good novels.â âThe Washington Post |
