As someone new to the Midwest after growing up in California, I really enjoyed this comparison between Twain’s novel and your experiences Matthew. I’m always fascinated by how our geography shapes us even after we’ve left or been away for a long time. Looking forward to reading more of your work on the Midwest. Big shoutout to Michael for having you here. Thank you both 🙏🏻
