Thoroughly enjoyed reading this and gaining a perspective into what farming actually could be like... hard work which hmm seems to not really pay-off the farmers! Never thought much when picking something from the shelves in a super-market, but now this has also provided a different view to the existing issues. Hilariously put across some serious troubles!

nie sądziłam, że czytanie o pracy na farmie sprawi mi taką frajdę

After Great Britain is hit by 2 catastrophes: Covid and Brexit, the author-journalist Jeremy Clarkson takes on the challenge of running a farm for a year. He explains his journey as bite-size articles throughout all seasons from tending animals such as vengeful sheep, to cultivating crops that he has never heard anything of. He faces the unpredictable weather with a great sense of humor.

This book is absolutely hilarious, and what I find perhaps the best about it, is that the author is mature enough to make jokes at his own expense and at his own foolishness when it comes to farming. He admits, that he is just a rookie and knows nothing about any other topics than cars and engines. Yet, Clarkson is surprised to learn, that operating his Lamborghini tractor is not his best competence either. It is an easy and light-hearted read and I recommend reading it for anyone who is looking for a fit of laughter.
funny hopeful informative lighthearted medium-paced

A very interesting look into farming with Clarkson’s classic humour.
