Synopsis
Although representations of the Midwest in the twentieth century often draw on the tropes of emptiness, evacuation, and loss, Pieces of the Heartland argues for a more complex view of the region. Addressing a variety of midwestern subjects--from creative works to national organizations and tourist brochures--the essays in this collection propose exciting new critical methods for studying the still vibrant geographic heart of the U.S.
