O knihe
Life as a farm wife on the plains of eastern Colorado held unexpected surprises for Diana, who had only recently worn high heels to work in a Denver office. Her manicured nails hit the dust (or in this case, the transmission oil); learning to drive a combine involved running over a fence; a leisurely walk down a country road brought her into contact with a loose bull; a bridge about to collapse from dry rot led to an unexpected benefit. Alishouse tells her stories with charm, with wit, and with compassion for the lives of the people who used to feed the world. Farm Wife Stories chronicles a time that is, unfortunately, becoming obsolete-a time when family farms were the norm, before their takeover by agricultural conglomerates. It doesn't matter whether you are a farmer, whether you'd like to be a farmer, whether you can't imagine ever being a farmer, or whether you think bread comes from a plastic bag, these stories of Diana's life as a farm wife are sure to entertain.
