“Ordinary Soil brings to haunting life the desperate realities of
the American heartland but also offers a glimpse into a better future ... a
call to action for all of us.” — WOODY HARRELSON
Haunted by a shadow from the past, a young farmer attempts suicide beneath a rotting burial elm, unearthing a dark ancestral history. But deep beneath the diseased generational roots lies a powerful secret — one that could save both the man and the land.
Review
To start with, this production is very well done. The narrator does a great job of taking the story to the next level and giving it life.
That being said, it helps that Ordinary Soil is extremely well written. The plot is tight and fast paced and makes for an entertaining read.
Author Alex Woodard captures the emotional and physical upheaval wrought by our ancestors and the sheer difference in our lives.
Rich in history, with well-developed characters and a strong sense of place.
