Join Battenkill Books for an author chat with Mary Cuffe Perez, whose new book is Barn Stories: Reflections from a Saratoga County Horse Farm. The stories in this collection are drawn from the author’s fifteen years managing a horse boarding business on a Saratoga County farm. The stories chronicle her experiences with a struggling business and a cast of intriguing characters—both animal and human—whose lives intersect under the gable roof of a two-hundred-year-old barn.

Mary Cuffe Perez is a writer of poetry, fiction and non-fiction, who lives in the town of Galway, NY. She has three published titles (The Woman of Too Many Days, Calyx Press, Skylar, Penguin Group, and Nothing by Name, Shaggy Dog Press) and her newly published, Barn Stories (North Country Books), a collection of creative non-fiction drawn from her years managing a horse farm in upstate NY. Much of her writing is inspired by the history, natural beauty and people of rural upstate New York.
