include flash memoir, lyric essays, narrative nonfiction, literary nonfiction,
travel writing, and historical excavations of place, trace the author's life from
early childhood onward, offering a template for understanding the impact
of place, region, family, literacy, and cultural influence on the shaping of a
Midwest identity.
