### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Middle-age worries
*by J***N on April 28, 2016*

Owner of a small farm in upper Michigan in the mid-1950s, Joey Lundgren, forty-three, is an unsettled soul. He’s been teaching at a very small school for twenty years which is now closing, his mother has finally passed away, his relationship with his long-time girlfriend Rosealee is stagnated, and he has become intimately involved with a very striking student. Joey is used to hardship. The farm, since his father started it five decades before, has never been more than marginally successful. His four sisters left at the earliest opportunity, leaving him to assist his parents. In addition, Joey has had to deal with a leg mangled in a piece of farm machinery when he was only eight years old, which has made him a pretty resilient guy.Joey has always been a curious and reflective sort. He longs to experience the ocean and its occupants. Lately, his enthusiasm for life around the farm has waned: hunting and fishing are less enjoyable. Catherine, the student, is a spark in his life, though he is fully aware of the delicate nature of this engagement. He is rough around the edges, but is likeable, engaging in far ranging discussions with the town doctor. Even the girl’s father is more understandable than confrontational with Joey. It is interesting to go on the journey with Joey as he looks at the past, takes stock of the present, and tries to figure out where he is headed. One gets the sense that he has the basic strength and smarts to work out his current difficulties and dissatisfactions.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's even better the second time around
*by E***E on August 4, 2015*

I read this book years ago and bought it recently to re-read. It's even better the second time around. Harrison is one of America's finest writers, and he hardly ever makes a misstep. The characters in FARMER are real, vulnerable, sometimes funny, always loving and TRYING to do the right thing. Harrison is brilliant.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Lovely Little Book
*by E***. on June 23, 2014*

Harrison is one of my all time favorite authors. His prose is soft spoken and familiar, the way a great uncle recounts a story to his nephew departing for college. The book is so simple and so true that there are never any surprises. If looking for an fast paced book that keeps you on the edge of the seat this isn't the book for you. But if you're looking for prose that is masterfully crafted and characters that are real people conveying real emotion than grab this little book and enjoy yourself.
