What gives the book its distinctive charm is its vivid evocation of a way of life: the beloved grandmother keeping house both as a shelter and as a temple of the spirit; the uncles sowing and harvesting, raising and slaughtering; the author, as a small boy, working with the men, fishing and hunting, and later, reflecting on the issues of pleasure and work, freedom and community.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51819475796256,"sku":"NEW0374529825","price":24.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/712Ce2LiaeL.jpg?v=1781133065","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/in-good-hands-the-keeping-of-a-family-farm-0374529825","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
