The Big Empty:
Contemporary Nebraska Nonfiction Writers
Edited by Ladette Randolph and Nina Shevchuk-Murray
“These essays are springs from which flows our collective identity. . . . Read The Big Empty slowly. Savor the depth of thought, the breadth of subjects, the richness of language. Distance surrounds us, and these Nebraska writers, ‘who pass through it with open eyes,’ as Ron Block says, open ours.”—Linda Read Deeds, Nebraska Life
