25 Novels from the Library of Jim Harrison
Jim Harrison was larger than life. Though perhaps best known for his novella Legends of the Fall and its movie adaptation starring Brad Pitt, which first brought him commercial success, he considered himself first and foremost a poet and continues to be celebrated as such with the recent release of his Complete Poems by Copper Canyon Press. He is among the giants of mid- and late-century American writing, with a devoted, verging-on-cult following, but is equally acclaimed in Europe where his reputation is only growing. He is known for his food writing (and appetite), his outdoor writing, his novels set in wild places (especially Michigan, Montana, and the Great Plains) as well as on the road, all with finely-observed attention to the natural world and an unsparing, one-of-a-kind wit. Rural Hours is pleased to offer a limited selection of novels from Harrison's library in Livingston, MT, with anticipated releases in nonfiction and poetry down the line. Note: These books won't ship until July 1, as we are headed out on vacation.
