Fly Over This: Stories from the New Midwest (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781948954631)

These compelling stories offer a detailed look at a part of
the country many Americans only glimpse through an airplane window from 30,000
feet-the small towns of the rural Midwest. The characters here--struggling to raise children and build a better future, or just to escape their past; searching
for connection on social media and longing for the glory days of youth, even as
they put on pounds and lose hair; good citizens, and criminal--populate a
landscape of emotional peaks and valleys far more varied and interesting than
the flat physical terrain they inhabit. They are the people we've left behind
when we moved to the city, or the people we've become. They are us.
