Saturday, July 17  2:00 PM Iowa City,  Shambaugh Auditorium, First Floor, Main Library

David Rhodes' Driftless is the 2010 All Iowa Reads selection from the Iowa Center for the Book. Rhodes will read from his book and talk about having his book chosen for the All Iowa Reads program. In "Driftless" (Milkweed Editions, 2008), Rhodes returns to the Midwestern landscape he knows so well, offering a fascinating and entirely unsentimental portrait of a town apparently left behind by the march of time. Home to a few hundred people yet absent from state maps, Words, Wisconsin comes richly to life by way of an extraordinary cast of characters.
