<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Untold stories from the American heartland of migration, belonging, and home.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>We the Interwoven, Volume 1</em>, brings us the stories of three Americans--three Iowans--whose families have found home in the heartland over the past two generations. This collection brings together a variety of genres, including nonfiction, poetry, and fiction, to represent their unique experiences and amalgamation of influences, from the coast of Azerbaijan to the border towns of Mexico to the archipelago of the Philippines. These stories reflect who they were, who they are, and who they hope to become with the help of Iowa's fields of opportunity. While the American Dream may bring to mind the quintessential white picket fence, the American experience is as unique as it is diverse.</p><p>Jesus "Chuy" Renteria was born in Iowa City and raised in West Liberty, Iowa.
