"Taylor is as funny as she is Midwestern. And she is thunderously Midwestern. You will enjoy this book!" --John Oliver, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, "Taylor is as funny as she is midwestern. And she is thunderously midwestern. You will enjoy this book!" --John Oliver, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, "Taylor is as funny as she is Midwestern. And she is thunderously Midwestern. You will enjoy this book!" --John Oliver, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver " . . . a wildly entertaining, precisely critical, and lovingly mocking taxonomy of the people of 'flyover country.'" --Vulture "It's perfect. It's wonderful. If you are from the Midwest, or know someone who is, go check this out, peruse it a little bit, buy it as a gift . . . Phillips does such an excellent job of parsing, with familiar and understandable exactitude, the very fine distinctions in what seem to be interchangeable expressions . . . It was both revelatory and delightful and somewhat reaffirming. Really fun pop anthropology that's smarter than it seems, and more fun than it has any right to be." --BookRiot
Synopsis
Learn (and love) the language of the landlocked in this illustrated guide to the common phrases and sentiments of the American Heartland. A Guide to Midwestern Conversation is an affectionate, self-deprecating look at a people long defined by their kindness and reduced to their voting patterns. Written by born-and-bred Midwesterner Taylor Kay Phillips, it's a wink, a hug, and a firm handshake (with eye contact) to the millions of Americans who know that a goodbye takes two hours and "a pretty quick drive" takes no more than four. With an array of notes, tips, and profiles of all twelve Midwestern states, A Guide to Midwestern Conversation will make Midwesterners and their friends laugh, nod their heads, and ask if "anyone needs anything real quick while I'm up.", Learn (and love) the language of the landlocked in this bitingly funny illustrated guide to the common phrases and sentiments of the American Heartland, from the author of the McSweeney's series "A Guide to Midwestern Conversation." If you end an evening by slapping your thighs and saying, "Welp, I'll go ahead and get outta your hair," then you don't need this guide, but you sure as heck might like it. Full of common Midwestern phrases (and what they really mean behind the friendly facade), A Guide to Midwestern Conversation is an affectionate, self-deprecating look at the language of a people long defined by their kindness and reduced to their voting patterns. Written by born-and-bred Midwesterner Taylor Kay Phillips, it's a wink, a hug, and a firm handshake (with eye contact) to the millions of Americans who say soda and pop interchangeably and grew up doing tornado drills in school. Discover Midwestern conversational staples like: How to announce that you hate something beyond comprehension ("I didn't really care for it") What counts as "a short drive" (less than eight hours) Sports talk (starts early, doesn't end till we're six feet under) Describing the ultimate dream home ("It's got a finished basement") An ode to the Garage Fridge Including an array of guides, tips, and profiles of all the states included, A Guide to Midwestern Conversation is guaranteed to make Midwesterners (and their friends) laugh out loud, nod their heads, and ask if "anyone needs anything real quick while I'm up."
