A fascinating one-year sojourn across America in search of greener pastures and the finest goat cheese* Many people dream of leaving the workaday world for a life of simplicity and freedom, and Margaret Hathaway and her then-boyfriend Karl did just that. In The Year of the Goat, the reader can jump in the goat mobile with them as they ditch their big-city lifestyle to trek across forty-three states in search of greener pastures and the perfect goat cheese. Along the way, the reader is introduced to a vivid cast of characters including farmers, breeders, cheese makers, and world-class chefs and discovers everything there is to know about goats and getting back to the land. But readers beware: When it comes to goat cheese, it can be love at first bite. Hathaway s descriptions of the various characters they meet both human and goat are funny and vivid. . . . This is a book for anyone who s ever imagined going back in time to a simpler life or anyone who loves cheese. Entertainment Weekly Back-to-the-land fantasies aren t new, but Hathaway gives theirs a modern twist. Publishers Weekly
