Love, The Midwest

When every day is the same day and the escape routes are stunted, the masks come out, and the stories write themselves. Told through the keen eye of Mickey Darin, the Dreamer, Love, the Midwest is a nostalgic coming of age snapshot like you've never read before. In a picturesque suburban wasteland, blood brothers, chemical girls, and the wreckage of betrayal set the tone for a cast of voices that feels like drowning slowly. The book itself sings the lost songs of a generation with no name. They echo harrowingly through labyrinthine neighborhoods and wintry cold senior hallways. As Mickey finds himself ever further down the rabbit hole, he is faced with the stark realization that the only way out might be straight through the other side. Love, the Midwest is a poetic tour de force that leaves the reader wondering: what silver lining if the precious metal's been sold?
