Small-Town Chaos: Lessons on Country Life -- L. Focht, Paperback
In Liberty, moments of grit, perseverance, heartbreak, and joy illustrate the fullness of living a small-town life.
A staunch urbanite, Lenore Focht never thought she'd end up in a remote farming community of 450 people. But when she gets a teaching job that could pave the way to a better position in the big city, she pulls up stakes and heads to rural Saskatchewan. After all, she's an independent woman who's capable of anything . . . right?
At first, Lenore doesn't know what to make of this prairie town, its quirky residents, or the challenges and drama of life on a working ranch. She tries to find her footing in an environment as unfamiliar as a foreign country only to discover that to truly thrive, she'll need to put down roots. As her family grows-and tragedy strikes a student-the people of Liberty show Lenore that small towns are forged out of love, resilience, and community.
A captivating memoir of hilarity and heartbreak, Small-Town Chaos is a tender reminder of what transforms a place into a home.
