Download or read book Farm written by Joyce Kinkead and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2020-06-01 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Farm, Joyce Kinkead, Evelyn Funda, and Lynne S. McNeill explore the culture of agriculture through a diverse and multicultural collection of fiction, poetry, essays, art, recipes, and folklore. This reader views farming through a variety of lenses, asking students to consider what farms, farming, and farmers mean, and have meant, to culture in the United States. In the text, readers are guided through the Jeffersonian idealism of the yeoman farmer (“cultivators of the earth are the chosen people of God”) to literature of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries (Thoreau’s “The Bean-Field,” Cather’s prairie trilogy, Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath, and Carpenter’s Farm City). Contributors provide historical context for the literary texts, such as discussion of sharecropping vs. plantation systems, the rise of agribusiness and chemical farming, and Teddy Roosevelt’s Country Life Commission. Written, visual, and oral texts ask readers to consider the farm in art (Grant Wood), ecology (Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring), children’s and young adult literature (classic children’s books, YA novels, nonfiction, and poetry), advertising (from early boosterism to Chipotle videos), print culture (farmers’ market and victory garden posters from both world wars), folklore (food culture, vintners, and veterinarian practices), popular culture (Farm Aid concerts), and much more. Each reading is supported by activities, exercises, projects, and visual rhetorical elements that further connect students to agriculture and the essential work of farmers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens to a man when he counts his own worth as loss? What happens to a woman when unseen wounds destroy her ability to speak? They invest in one another. From that moment on, both Jake and Suzannah’s inner pain heals bit by bit. By gentle degrees, their true natures entwine. They even dare to dream of a future together—until Jake’s past twists back into their lives and threatens to steal him away. * * * Jacob Cooper has tortured himself for a year, ever since his pregnant wife disappeared. After finding her car abandoned on Harper Ranch, he takes a job there, breaking horses. When his search through miles of surrounding hills turns up empty, he finds himself lost in a world of guilt and loneliness, yearning for the day a wild horse will finally break him. Suzannah Harper's high school sweetheart has long since passed from youthful boyfriend to bearded stalker. When a judge denies a restraining order, her pursuer’s aggression escalates. Suzannah flees to Montana to find sanctuary. Within minutes of setting foot on Harper Ranch, a bear of a man tackles her to the ground. All Suzannah sees are black eyes set over a cruel beard. And yet, this cowhand is not her stalker. A close look into those chilling eyes and she knows: they are not pits of evil, but windows to an anguished soul. Suzannah pushes her own torment aside to rescue Jake. She will—she must—help him find his wife, even when it means she can never have him. At first, the voiceless Suzannah exasperates Jake beyond reason. But as Jake witnesses Suzannah’s daily suffering—simply to be heard—he finally understands that strength and vulnerability are two sides of the same coin. If he can muster similar strength, he can—he will—help Suzannah accept her affliction and forge ahead, or she will be lost to him forever.
