4.0 out of 5 stars Midwestern Chic, January 30, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: I Hear America Swinging (Hardcover)
Largely forgotten today, De Vries was a humorist supreme of Midwestern values. I HEAR AMERICA SWINGING is a clever look at how out of place Midwesterners can be in their attempt to be contemporary.Particularly hilarious is his tweaking of his Dutch Christian Reformed heritage with one scandel being a non literal uniform reading of the Bible. Admittedly very dated at points, De Vries still raises a belly laugh now and then.
