Editorial Reviews

Review

Mohin has created a ruggedly self-determined character and an enlightened meditation on nature and aging.– “Los Angeles Times”

From the Back Cover

The Farm She Was is the story of a strong and resilient single woman, Irene Leahy. It also is a story about our relationship to the land, to animals, to nature, and to each other. Author Ann Mohin, a farm-woman herself, writes poignantly and poetically of Irene’s life and her battle to save the sheepfarm in upstate New York where she has lived since birth. Irene’s story, slipping in and out of the past and present, is a story about rural life spanning most of this century. It is about an American era rapidly coming to a close.

About the Author

Ann Mohin and her husband raise sheep and most of their own food on their 1580-acre farm at McDonough, New York, south of Syracuse. Her short stories and poetry have been published in literary magazines and anthologies across the united States. The Farm She Was, her first novel, was selected by the New York Times Book Review as one of the “Notable Books of the Year” when it was published in Hardcover in 1998.
