Farmer by Jim Harrison

[Harrison] knows life in a way that few will admit to, and writes about it in a ribald, vigorous, and intelligent fashion. . . . A national treasure. Chicago Tribune
“A quiet triumph. . Joseph is a man suffocated by everything he loves most in the world: the land and its ghosts, love and friendship, integrity. 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.”—The Washington Post

“A beautiful novel.”—The Boston Globe

“Farmer is a sensitive, powerful love story about a man on the cutting edge of life . . . The characters are so real that often my eyes filled up with tears for their plight, their human helplessness.”—Richard Brautigan

“Superb.”—Saturday Review

“In Harrison’s hand the story is fresh with a gentle intuition.”—Houston Chronicle
