Rurally Screwed

A magazine editor in New York, Jessie Knadler had a habit of always looking over her shoulder for better options. She wasn't quite sure moving to Montana and marrying a cowboy was a better option-but, head over heels in love, she did it anyway.

At a loss in her new rural environment, she hoped that activities like chicken farming and fence building might provide her with a more profound, virtuous sense of self (and make her husband Jake love her even more). It all led her to some strange situations-and surprising realizations. Written with huge personality and searing wit, Rurally Screwed is an immensely entertaining and moving memoir about the things we do for love-and the lengths we'll go to find our true identity.
