To the CreekGray, Suzanne Fernandez 01 January 2019 (has links)
“To the Creek” is a creative nonfiction work in which place and identity play integral roles. Following a series of family revelations, the narrator embarks on a rebuilding project both of herself and a 100-year-old corncrib, the only standing structure on a Kentucky farm she and her husband inherited a few years before. However, farm life isn’t a natural fit for a first generation Cuban American, so this work touches on identity as well.
The corncrib’s new function as a retreat and writing space leads the writer to explore similar efforts by other writers to convert existing sheds into creative spaces, with particular emphasis on Virginia Woolf and Thomas Merton.
