Where: Pulpit Rock Brewing events room
When: Tuesday, 3/11 at 7:00pm
Join Kevin Koch, author of Midwest Bedrock: The Search for Nature's Soul in America's Heartland, and the Dragonfly Books Staff on Tuesday March 11 at 7pm in the Pulpit Rock Brewing events room for a reading, Q&A, and signing!
Kevin Koch is a Professor Emeritus of English at Loras College in Dubuque, IA, where he taught courses in creative nonfiction, nature writing, among others. When not teaching or writing, he can be found bicycling, hiking, cross-country skiing, or canoeing/kayaking in the Driftless Land.
Midwest Bedrock: The Search for Nature's Soul in America's Heartland takes readers on a journey across all twelve Midwest states to uncover the region’s natural beauty and rich stories. Author Kevin Koch explores landscapes that defy typical stereotypes, from Wisconsin’s 1,100-mile Ice Age Trail marking the furthest reach of the last glacier, to Minnesota’s Lake Itasca, the headwaters of the Mississippi River, and Indiana’s Hoosier National Forest, home to hidden graveyards from abandoned farm communities. Combining history, memoir, and interview-based research, Koch’s narrative weaves together the layers of the Midwest’s natural and cultural heritage, offering a deeper understanding of its land and legacy.
This event is part of Dragonfly Books and the Oneota Valley Literary Foundation’s robust author event series, which brings top-notch writers of all genres to Northeast Iowa to lead in conversations about literature and writing.
