Lord Of The Barnyard
(?????? ?????)
In his first book "lord of the barnyard", Tristan Egolf criticizes the western culture at general, and the american society especially - her institutes and habits, particularly in the mid west.
John Keltenbruner is his main character in a story which takes place in the town of Baker, in the american mid west. He's born to a single-parent mom, who raises him in an isolated farm.
The Keltenbruner farm was his project for 10 years. John, a six years old, worked in that farm from day to night, rehabilitating the only thing that meant something to him.
He would get to school smelling from his early morning work, which didn't make things easier on him with his peers. He suffered repeatedly from abusing, by his teachers as well as by his classmates, a fact which caused him a major descent psychologically. Society pushed him out side its circle, and made him look at it in a special way.
After his farm had been ruined and his mother health went down as well, John started loosing his sanity. He had to do community service because of an incident he had the police, when they came to his farm, and when he was through with that, he came back to Baker and started working in the town's trash yard.
After witnessing the town's people attitude towards the trash yard employees, he decides to organize a strike.
The strike got out of hand and developed into anarchy and total chaos all over the district, and until today it is remembered as "The Crisis".
