Millions of people dream of chucking the city and living the simple country life. Jim Mullen was not one of them. Then his wife buys a little place in the Catskill Mountains as therapy to help her quit smoking.
Mullen is thrust into a parallel universe of sorts: shopkeepers are friendly and accept checks without ID, strangers wave to you, reservations at restaurants are unnecessary and parking is free. Exotic produce no longer consists of tomatillos and lemongrass at the market, but oregano on the grocery story shelf.
His mostly dairy farming neighbors have never read The New York Times, don't know who Ralph Lauren is, and don't shop at The Sharper Image. Yet despite these "deprivations" they live happy, full lifes. Mullen gradually warms to the place.
An eye-opening, humorous look at just how hard it can be to live the simple life.
