The Free Farm: A Novel by Larry Smith
"Forbidden love. Counter-culture. The shadow of Vietnam. Sexual revolution. Social unrest. Marijuana
and LSD. In this intriguing coming-of-age novel by Larry Smith, The Free Farm, we journey back to
America’s turbulent late 60s and early 70s…. Smith provides a unique window into Lee’s young life that
is driven by idealism, love of Emerson and Thoreau, and devotion to his beautiful partner, who practices
Zen, meditates, and can fix cars….In this realistic yet often surprising and tender novel, a quoted line
from 'The Waking' by Theodore Roethke serves as a guidepost: 'I wake to sleep, and take my waking
slow/ I feel my fate in what I cannot fear/ I learn by going where I have to go.'"
~ Laura Treacy Bentley, author of Lake Effect
