The tale of an American writer's journey through his own imaginative world and through the world of facts, with many of his experiences and impressions among other writers--told in many notes--in four books--and an Epilogue. This is a memoir of Midwestern life and culture from the author of Winesburg, Ohio.
"The voice of the soliloquist . . . amplifies the drama of
A Story Teller's Story, as does the persistent theme of escape, from an America of fact and factories, marketing and manufacturing, to the borderless Ohios of imagination and creation."
--From the introduction by Thomas Lynch
