Produktbeschreibung
With humor and a keen sense of appreciation for the beauty of a fading ower petal and the swollen belly of a well-fed leech, Jennifer Neves's essays pull readers from one boundary of her 42-acre farm to the next.

Her words invite the reader to share in self-discovery, in reverence for the land, and in the sometimes quiet, but most often astonishingly loud business of raising a handful of feral children.
