Diary of a Clueless Farmer

Discontented with the daily hustle of city life, twenty-eight-year-old Rosalyn Chege completely goes off the grid and buys a farm in the rustic village of Mukuyu in a bid to slow down and find her life’s purpose.The naive Rosalyn erroneously assumes that the village folk are a warm-hearted lot, unadulterated by the world’s vices unlike their city counterparts. The quirky and sometimes laughable characters such as the alcohol imbibing farmhand Njaramba or the envious teacher Millicent Mwendwa often prove her wrong.Rosalyn quickly finds out that life in the village is anything but tranquil and undisturbed. In between playing midwife, a brief teaching and getting shot in the leg by a new found arch-rival, Rosalyn often finds hers hands full with everything but farming.The dashing Dr Ezra Mchana, Mukuyu’s self proclaimed most eligible bachelor has his eyes set on Rosalyn. Their riveting romance is often faced with turbulent challenges but eventually love conquers all and after much soul searching, loss and triumph, Rosalyn finally finds her place not just in Mukuyu but in the world as a whole.Written in journal form, Diary Of A Clueless Farmer is a quintessential Kenyan story. The characters are a true reflection of Kenya’s society and its current trends. It is a classic story, laced with satire and good-natured humor where good triumphs and evil fails. It is a story of family, faith and hope.
