Bury Me in the Back Forty

Bury Me in the Back Forty is the highly anticipated successor to the sold-out books Out West and Crown Ditch by Kyler Zeleny and the final chapter in his prairie trilogy. 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. Limited Edition: 600; Format: Hardcover; Printing: Four Colour Offset; Dimensions: 168 pages, 210 × 267 mm; ISBN: 978-1-908889-96-6; Year: 2024
