Barn Gothic

Three Generations and the Death of the Family Dairy Farm

Beautifully Written, Deeply Moving-Barn Gothic Reveals the Human Cost of Losing America's Family Farms.

When RyanDennis's fatherwas crushed by heavy machinery on their New York dairy farm, both men accepted the accident as a risk of agricultural life. But it was harder to comprehend being crushed by low milkprices, big banks, and the policies that destroyed America's family farms.

Even though Ryan grew up watching his father and grandfather struggle to survive, he always thoughthe would follow in their footsteps and take over the family farm. But as hemilked cows and fed calves, the world outside the barn was changing. Between 2003 and 2020, 40,000 dairyfarms wentout of business in theUnited States.

Barn Gotl1ic is an elegy for family farmers andan intimate portrait of three generations laboring to be fathers and sonswhiletheir livelihood falls apart. Beautifully told with a farmer's restraint and a poet'sgrace, it is a story of personal loss amid corporate corruption and of finding a way forward when everything you know disappears.
