For a decade now, Kyler Zeleny has been documenting his hometown, a rural community on the Canadian Prairies with deep Ukrainian roots, consisting of 915 people. Based on the idea that the story of any place evolves over time, Zeleny has been using his own photographs, collected objects, community archives, and hidden histories, to revise the community's history book from the year 1980.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a pluralistic history of the community that embraces both official and unofficial accounts of events in the community's past - a community album that contains not only the roses but also the numerous thorns attached to each stem. It encapsulates the collective virtues and vices found at the heart of any complex place on the verge of disappearing. More importantly, it is simply a story being recorded, recollected, and reconfigured - a layered portrait of small town living that is both unique and universal. The result of which is the stoicism of place, a lived existence, which roars at ties and suffers so quietly at others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublished by The Velvet Cell\u003cbr\u003eEdition of 600\u003cbr\u003eHardcover\u003cbr\u003e168 pages\u003cbr\u003e210 x 267 mm\u003cbr\u003eISBN 9781908889966\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Velvet Cell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57006502707531,"sku":"BMBFKZ","price":39.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2538\/3478\/files\/tvc100-bury_me-front-2000x-q75-sharpen10.webp?v=1775920625","url":"https:\/\/www.thelibraryproject.ie\/da\/products\/bury-me-in-the-back-forty-kyler-zeleny","provider":"The Library Project","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
