FUTURE FARM STORIES
This book often has price deals!
After a spoken introduction to “Future Farm Stories” by “the farmer's wife,” where she stands before us and explains the subtle emotional difference between farmed land and wild land, the first story in this book, “More Power,” begins.
“More Power” is about a farmer who gradually comes to sense a strange presence hidden somewhere in his fields. We see him at work with his friendly colleagues and his modern machinery, we see the minor disasters and triumphs of his life. Years on the farm pass, but all the while, in the farmer's mind, a feeling grows that there is something hidden there, on his farm, something secret. This sense almost becomes a friendly presence until he ultimately realises that he might work his farm forever but still never know the source of the feeling.
I have a similar feeling about certain places I have known. Years have gone by and I am no closer to knowing what those feelings are all about either, and I explain my position in this tale.
