"Wind Farm: Landscape with Stories and Towers explores the human and natural geography of the Illinois prairie landscape of Jeff Gundy’s youth, transformed long ago by the grid system of roads and ditches and intensive agriculture, and altered again by a vast wind farm. These deeply personal yet wide-ranging lyrical essays—whimsical, practical, and mystical, sometimes within the same paragraph—range across football and chicken farming, power grids and Mennonite history, folk music and mound-builders, set off by Gundy’s own photographs. As industrial production of corn, soybeans, and energy becomes pervasive, and farmsteads and human populations among the towers dwindle, Wind Farm investigates the imagined past and intricate present of one small portion of the prairie, and glimpses possible futures for it and the planet."--publisher's website.
