"Steven Moore's nuanced, hypnotic essays about growing up in the Midwest balance nostalgia with critique, sharing childhood memories that were formative to his identity . . . . If 'estrangement toward place ... is an estrangement toward self, ' these essays, with their sensitive probing of geographical identities, chart the way back to harmony.""--Foreword Reviews (starred review) A series of impressionistic essays on the culture and history of middle America...Moore incisively catalogs the ironies and complexities of the Midwest. It's a subtle yet effective eye-opener.""--Publishers Weekly"
