Fallow is a creative non-fiction book of memory and place. It chronicles the lives of
William and Vera Lutz and their lives of struggle on the Northern Plains of North Dakota.
It follows a narrator and his attempts to make sense of, and connect to their, lives
following both of their deaths. It examines the life of William as the life left behind, and
the life of Vera as the life continually felt, but never known. The chapters are held
together by the quest of the narrator and a rumination on the idea that the sometimes
brutal nature of prairie life shapes the lives of those who live there. That is, this story
could not happen in any other place. / Graduation date: 2003
