Publisher's Synopsis
A drunken misunderstanding changes Simon's life forever. Along with his wife and Great Dane, he moves to the wilds of Devon and takes up the challenge of leaving city life behind. Suddenly surrounded by pigs, chickens, goats and geese, it becomes a journey full of surprises - some funny, some tragic - leading Simon to question Mother Nature, himself, the food he eats, and his place in it all. Whether chasing turkeys, musing over life with the General (the resident alpha pig) or getting knee-deep in mud and mess, Simon learns what it takes to truly survive self-sufficiency and enjoy a slice of the good life.
