Summary |
A Place of Sense will stir up memories of those of us who live(d) in the Midwest and give the rest of the country a sense of what they've missed. ... should give any Midwesterner a sense, in both meanings of the term, of freedom of thought and feeling possible within the even metre of the streets and fields. Collected here are essays by Louise Erdrich, Michael Rosen, Gary Comstock, Mary Swander, Jane Staw, David Hamilton, Janet Kauffman, Douglas Bauer, and Michael Martone, with sixteen black-and-white photographs by David Plowden. |
