Pieces of the Heartland: Representing Midwestern Places

by Andy Oler (Editor)

Overview

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.
