Don't we all?' “ New York Times THE US NATIONAL BESTSELLERWe all dream of having a place to escape to “ Patrick Hutchison found his at the end of a gravel road called Wit's End. Working unhappily as a copywriter in the Pacific Northwest, scouring social media for ˜cabin porn' in his spare time, Patrick came across an advert for a tiny, dilapidated cabin nestled deep in the forests of the Cascade Mountains. Scraping together his last few dollars, he bought the place for $7,500 and set about making it his own.
