Celebrating the American heartland as only Larry Kanfer can, A Prairie
State of Mind takes readers over fields fertile and fallow and through
the eternal cycle of the seasons. Walk roads melodic with birdsong and
the chatter of cicadas. Look onto hillsides plowed into geometric
perfection while breathtaking thunderheads boil overhead. Experience
barn textures and rusted sheds pulled from the past and wind turbines
signaling the future.
Selected from Kanfer's new collection, A Prairie State of Mind
portrays a land of serene beauty and startling contrasts. His
perspectives, landscapes, and details embrace the Midwest, confirming
that throughout the day and across time, the prairie connects us all.
