Sample Book Insights:
#1 Des Moines is a small town that is known to be hypnotic. It is the most powerful hypnotic known to man. People either accept it and settle down with a local girl named Bobbi, or they spend their adolescence moaning about how awful it is and how they can’t wait to get out.
#2 I grew up in Des Moines, and I can tell you that the place gets a grip on you. People who have nothing to do with Des Moines drive in off the interstate, looking for gas or hamburgers, and stay forever.
#3 I once had to drive to Minneapolis. I went on a back road just to see the country, but there was nothing to see. It’s just flat and hot, and full of corn and soybeans and hogs. Every once in a while you come across a farm or some dead little town where the liveliest thing is the flies.
#4 I never felt at home in Iowa, even when I was a child. I wanted to be a European boy, and I wanted to live in an apartment across from a park in the heart of a city. I wanted to ride trams and understand strange languages.
