The Paris Review publishes a literary essay about a combined bookstore and skate shop operating near Hannah Neeleman's Ballerina Farm in rural Utah. Writer Claire Carusillo explores the unexpected cultural juxtaposition of high-minded literature and skate culture alongside one of the internet's most prominent Mormon tradwife influencers.

The piece examines small-town economies built around agrarian nostalgia and social-media fame, treating Ballerina Farm as backdrop rather than subject. The essay appeared in the magazine's cultural commentary section.
