Sample Book Insights:

#1 I had driven six hours from Manhattan to interview Mark, a farmer who was growing the kind of local organic food that more and more people wanted to eat. I was not disgusted but enlivened by what we were doing. I was fascinated by the hard white purse of the stomach, the neat coil of intestines, and the lacy white caul fat.

#2 I went back to the farm the next morning to rake rocks in the tomatoes with Mark’s assistant Michael. It took two hours to pick all the rocks out of the soil, and I was sore from the previous day’s exertions.

#3 I was not a great cook at the time, but I was a big fan of good food. I appreciated it, but I didn’t have a steady relationship with it. Food was more like a series of one-night stands for me. I was not sure the oven in my small studio was functional, since in the seven years I’d lived there, I’d never used it.

#4 The food was delicious, but the crew was not impressed. Food is the first wealth, and if you grow it right, you feel insanely rich no matter what you own.
