Summary:
"Seen from the air, the seemingly endless spaces that form America's
Midwest appear in rectangular variations of brown, green, and ochre,
with what Michael Martone calls "the tended look of a train set." In
these essays, the flatness of the region becomes the author's canvas
for a richly textured, multidimensional exploration of midwestern
culture and history. Martone's memorable accounts of his experiences
lead us on a path toward discovery of the stories that build our own
sense of place and color our understanding of the world."--BOOK
