Michael Perry returns to the Rice Lake Public Library for an author visit to discuss his novella, Forty Acres Deep on Tuesday April 23, 2024 at 7 PM. The event is free and open to the public. Michael will also share humorous and heartfelt stories drawn from his beloved books and offbeat life experiences.About Forty Acres Deep: When farmer Harold wakes to find his wife dead beside him in bed and snow threatening to crush the last life from his dwindling farm, he takes drastic steps toward a fresh start. Set in a world of stark wintry beauty, Forty Acres Deep is the brief, unrelenting tale of a farmer’s attempt to save the remains of his land and make sense of a world he no longer recognizes while pitilessly calling himself into account after the death of his wife and child. Seamed with grim humor and earthy revelations, it is an unforgiving story…and yet leaves open the idea that we might surrender to hope.
