Periodically, while reading 'The Dirty Life', a book which I loved, I found myself thinking about 'Eat, Pray, Love', a book I hated for its solipsism. The protagonists in. The Dirty Life is the captivating chronicle of the couple’s first year on Essex Farm, from the cold North Country winter through their harvest-season wedding in the loft of the barn. Kristin and Mark’s plan to grow everything needed to feed a community was an ambitious idea, and a bit romantic. So it was with this idyllic vision of farming that I eagerly read Kristin Kimball’s The Dirty Life, a memoir about establishing a “whole foods” farm with her husband. I learned so much from this book: about farming and about life. There is so much WORK involved in.
