      The narrative revolves around Richard Taylor, a former Kentucky Poet Laureate, who purchased a dilapidated historic home known as "Taylor's Folly" in 1975. The Giltner-Holt House, built in 1859 near Elkhorn Creek, served as both a personal project and a gateway to the rich history and culture of the region. The creek itself became a significant source of inspiration for his poetry, intertwining his life with the landscape and heritage of Kentucky.
