Review # 1 was written on 2020-06-02 00:00:00 Bill Reno Not a word is wasted when Perelman (whom I love) decides to put pen to paper. This tale of moving from the city to a farm is no exception. His self-deprecating and oh-so-observant wit will have you laughing out loud, forgetting that the reason you think he's so funny is precisely because you recognize so much of yourself in him, which means he could be accused of deprecating you. It doesn't matter. Few writers can lay out so brilliantly, time and again, the way our fantasies can drive us to the sort of insanity we only recognize once reality comes along to tell us it's too late.

Review # 2 was written on 2014-08-05 00:00:00 Kenneth Van Buren This book smashes the preconceptions that a sylvan, rustic life is easier and more desirable for a city-dweller. There are just as many opportunists and hypocrites out there as there are in the city. I think it's his best work among Crazy Like a Fox and Keep It Crisp. He is at the top of his game here.
