I’m enjoying the Slate articles by Jon Katz, about whom I know nothing except that he appears to be a city slicker with a hobby farm. His writings about the farm’s animal residents reveal a lack farming experience and a very metropolitan manner, but sweetly mixed with a tendency to anthropomorphise and capture little details. As one who is enamoured with the idea of keeping a hobby farm, I find these a very enjoyable read.
