Book Overview

""Out Of The Middle West"" is a novel by Bonnie Melbourne Busch, first published in 1922. The story follows the life of a young woman named Mary, who is born and raised in the Midwest of the United States. Despite the limitations and expectations of her time and place, Mary is determined to break free from the confines of her small town and pursue her dreams of becoming a writer. As Mary embarks on her journey, she encounters a range of challenges and obstacles, including poverty, sexism, and the disapproval of her family and community. However, she also finds allies and supporters along the way, including a young man named Jack who shares her passion for literature and encourages her to pursue her goals.

Overall, ""Out Of The Middle West"" is a moving and inspiring story of one woman's journey to find her voice and claim her place in the world.
