Imagining Home: Writing from the Midwest

by Mark Vinz, Thom Tammaro (Contribution by)

Overview

'These writers have stayed with the Midwest: loving it; hating it; wrestling with its contradictions, its transparency, its opacity, its ambiguity; but ultimately moving to embrace it...we hope, finally, that these sixteen essays will offer readers a starting point for exploring and discovering how the landscapes of their own homes have been a shaping influence in their lives.' --Mark Vinz and Thom Tammaro, editors of Imaging Home
