Ohio Apertures - Paperback

Robert Miltner's Ohio Apertures is a collection of brief pieces of creative

nonfiction that turns its attention to northeast Ohio's position as both a Great

Lakes state and the north coast of America. Its two dozen selections, which

include flash memoir, lyric essays, narrative nonfiction, literary nonfiction,

travel writing, and historical excavations of place, trace the author's life from

early childhood onward, offering a template for understanding the impact

of place, region, family, literacy, and cultural influence on the shaping of a

Midwest identity.
