Summary

Prairie Style is about the breakdown of location and voice. It lays out a landscape of habitations (Frank Lloyd Wright's designs for "servantless families," fox dens in an embankment, the two-mile long face of Chicago's Robert Taylor public housing project, etc.) and crosses and recrosses the line between poetry and prose. The book is an acknowledgment of the 'œterrible frankness' of color, pleasure's distance, and the similarity of equivocation and argument. Prairie Style is the turn inland. 'œInland, one needs something more racial, say bigger, than mountains.'
