The Bucolic Plague by Josh Kilmer-Purcell
In The Bucolic Plague, Josh Kilmer-Purcell’s latest memoir, he and his partner impulsively buy a farm in Sharon Springs, New York. Hilarity ensues.
I’m tempted to just finish my review right there, but I guess I should say more. Okay, so Josh Kilmer-Purcell wrote the book called I Am Not Myself These Days about his life as an alcoholic drag queen with a drug addicted male escort of a boyfriend. It still stands as one of my favorite books. I am pleased that he returned to memoir style writing after a brief forte into fiction writing with Candy Everybody Wants
.
Like I said, Josh and his partner Brent buy a farm. It’s clear that they did not think the idea through because they have a really hard time getting the farm up and running. Not only that, but they must make the farm profitable if they want to keep it. Their solution, raise goats and grow tomato!
Overall I really liked the book and managed to read it over the course of a couple days. As I read it I liked the tension that builds as you wonder if they’re going to be able to pull this off and keep the farm. It has many ups and downs. It wasn’t all goats and giggles. There are parts that are not comical at all such as the deterioration of Josh and Brent’s relationship due to the pressure of running a farm. I started wondering if the farm was going to cause the end of their relationship.
I enjoyed reading this book and found it to be a very touching story about two gays guys who buy a farm and the troubles that come with it.
Their farm’s website is beekman1802.com
Oh, they also have a reality TV show on Planet Green and you can watch the first episode online at Planet Green’s website.

Oh wow this book sounds awesome!! I've become a farming and sustainable living book junkie…add in a relationship/memoir dynamic and I'm all there. Thanks for the recommendation and great review :)

Did you read I Am Not Myself These Days?
July 5th, 2010 at 10:34 pm
Nope, I haven't…should I read that one first? Sounds good!

It's not necessary but it is also a fantastic book.
