One Man's Quest for Meaningful Work in the American South The Weight of the Barn, illustration by Tarri N. Driver https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5652046ae4b0280166986b22/1557853581056-GR7AXO825Q9P75DXFI19/IRB.png HARDBARNED! One Man's Quest for Meaningful Work in the American South - Independent Review of Books “Driver spent years staring down some of the hardest questions of the last generation, namely: What am I supposed to do with this degree? What do I want to do with my life? Am I ever going to find a job that makes me happy? While these questions are far from unique to this generation, or any other, the tone of the writing and the contemporary nature of this book make it all the more powerful…Driver has successfully straddled the world of both blue- and white-collar work, seeing the concept of comfort and wealth from both side of the proverbial fence. This memoir leans a bit more toward his rugged work in the South, specifically lugging portable storage barns across wide swaths of empty miles, but the mind of the man writing these words has not been locked in a blue-collar universe…like a casual conversation over a cold beer…realistic and relatable.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5652046ae4b0280166986b22/1542740177551-8VNLRJMLV6DP9OVI0MMB/FWC.jpg HARDBARNED! One Man's Quest for Meaningful Work in the American South - FOREWORD CLARION REVIEWS “Heartfelt…funny…poignant and self-deprecating…[Driver’s] innate talents at observation and introspection are important elements of the narrative…a positive and hilariously upbeat narrator…conversational and warm; his ear for dialogue provides much of the humor in the narrative arc…[his] discussion on the applicability of liberal arts degrees and the lack of job opportunities for graduates proves heartfelt…[with] relevant research and examples…a thoughtful and highly entertaining memoir. It pokes fun at the liberal arts and attitudes in the American South alongside its poignant observations about the harsher realities of finding soul-sustaining work.” (4 of 5 stars) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5652046ae4b0280166986b22/1542739679445-F4GFSYFOY5PXSIKWKSH2/BIR.jpeg HARDBARNED! One Man's Quest for Meaningful Work in the American South - BLUEINK REVIEW “[Driver’s] insights about the nature of work—the seduction of money and security vs. the tedium of marginal employment—are hard-won and will be illuminating for those who have wanted to ‘take this job and shove it.’” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5652046ae4b0280166986b22/1525956750335-UVX8YU47FDV8HYQMB1U1/SUmedal.png HARDBARNED!

One Man's Quest for Meaningful Work in the American South - KIRKUS REVIEWS “A largely resonant, darkly comic remembrance that embodies the struggle between pursuing reliable employment and devoting oneself to one’s passions. [Driver’s] fraught, often-bumpy journey will strike a chord with many readers—especially college graduates who have labored under the impression that their degrees would, for want of a better phrase, pay off…” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5652046ae4b0280166986b22/1542740891755-XEH65CZBNWI7CO3YWAJ9/review.png HARDBARNED! One Man's Quest for Meaningful Work in the American South - READERS’ FAVORITE “Reads like nothing I have read in a long while; brutally honest, an unadulterated X-ray of the crude realities that confront contemporary American workers...as entertaining as it is critical of the social realities of his time, a book that brilliantly captures the pain and the frustrations of a wide section of America’s working class...deft and balanced, infused with a rare sense of humor and satire. I enjoyed the crisp prose and the excellent descriptions, but it was the author’s unique and compelling narrative voice that kept me turning from one fascinating page to the next." (5 of 5 stars) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5652046ae4b0280166986b22/1549033972386-GGWTIKJV7H6BLA288QWN/SPR.jpg HARDBARNED! One Man's Quest for Meaningful Work in the American South - SELF-PUBLISHING REVIEW “An amusing and insightful memoir...asks important questions about work, life, happiness, and the American Dream that will be useful to anyone trying to navigate the working life...between the humorous encounters, whirlwind romances and long nights in lonely towns, there is deep musing and philosophical examinations of what it means to do something meaningful–both for yourself and society on the whole... What makes Driver such an interesting and sympathetic narrator is he is someone who can clearly kick it with cowboys and mingle with executives; he’s a chameleon, a wanderer, and a bard all rolled into one...bursting with life and sincere experience...Driver certainly has the capacity to inspire introspection."

One Man's Quest for Meaningful Work in the American South - BOOKLIFE PRIZE “A strong indication of an emerging talent is the ability to make work like barn-hauling interesting. Driver’s wit and grit are evident in this memoir, and it will be a pleasure to see what he’ll produce next.” (Quarter-Finalist, 9.25 of 10 stars) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5652046ae4b0280166986b22/1549033856552-A3GTXTW56M4YHSKG9QA0/WD.jpg HARDBARNED! One Man's Quest for Meaningful Work in the American South - WRITER’S DIGEST SELF-PUBLISHED BOOK AWARDS "Humor is as evident as angst in these pages…many of Driver’s anecdotes include weird (and funny) details…Tarri N. Driver deserves kudos for her companionship during repos and her charming illustrations. The cover art grabs attention, and the back blurb is well done, bound to attract a wide-ranging audience.” (27 of 30 points) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5652046ae4b0280166986b22/1539558802336-56UVITBMEUO9JKG0OTAC/Finalist+2018.png HARDBARNED! One Man's Quest for Meaningful Work in the American South - Independent Author Network Book of The Year Awards HARDBARNED! is a 2018 Independent Author Network Book of The Year Awards finalist for memoir/autobiography/biography. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5652046ae4b0280166986b22/1542741638176-TCP5CT0OMLZ0BCH5LZCZ/SFBR.png HARDBARNED! One Man's Quest for Meaningful Work in the American South - SAN FRANCISCO BOOK REVIEW “[Driver] manages to capture much of the frustration and existential despair that aspiring writers and artists encounter while struggling to earn their keep in a world that is generally indifferent to their labors. [His] search for a writing job takes place, unfortunately, during some of the worst moments in the American economy (right in that 2008-era sweet spot), and his feelings of futility and frustration will resonate with many of those who have found themselves in similar positions (and majors). One of the most pleasant surprises about HARDBARNED! is Driver’s prose. Driver’s voice is familiar but articulate, and his writing flows easily and well. Through it, he traces both his three years hauling barns, as well as the formative moments of his earlier life, which flesh out the reader’s understanding—and perhaps his own—of just how he ended up hauling barns in the deep South. The book, overall, is engaging, entertaining, and enlightening to read. He offers a glimpse into a world—barn-hauling—most people have never encountered, which turns out to be both more complicated and more harrowing than most would imagine. Readers will delight in Driver’s friendly and articulate writing and will feel genuine kinship for him in his attempts to get both himself and his truck out of a succession of ruts.” (4 of 5 stars) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5652046ae4b0280166986b22/1542740545583-4NDQP52499RN2SHBYDLT/IRA.jpg HARDBARNED! One Man's Quest for Meaningful Work in the American South - INDIE READER "In turn reflective and irreverent, Driver masterfully evades bitterness throughout his endeavors to find employment, and finally grows his experience into a moving reflection…always with lightness of touch, [he] provides insight into the condition of a generation that had been promised access to dreams with a liberal education, but was left instead with a mountain of debt, dreams to undo, and endless reality checks, moving from job to job, all the while looking for meaning and purpose. Driver’s memoir pieces have a distinctive and recognizable voice, and exhibit the writer’s strong command of style; they are meticulously precise and descriptive, providing us with detailed landscapes and characters…The reader acquires delivery lingo…while also learning that many customers cannot clearly explain where they live—in what seems like a metaphor for the confusing waters of employment and life purpose Driver himself is attempting to navigate. Driver’s “three-year course in anger management” pays off with this collection, sparking reflections such as whether outdoor physical labor or office most feeds the human soul…you will never look at storage barns the same way, and you will be moved by the mentorship provided by Mitch, who supplies Chris with the Barn job. You will also learn how sometimes the word “Barn” is all you need to say, but most of all, you will laugh." (A “Best Reviewed” Book, 4.2 of 5 stars)
