“Chicago Renaissance: Literature and Art in the Midwest Metropolis” by Liesl Olson

Excited to see my image “Hybrid Chicago” the cover of Liesl Olson’s new book “Chicago Renaissance: Literature and Art in the Midwest Metropolis”, Yale University Press.

Watch Lincoln Schatz interview Liesl Olson at The Arts Club of Chicago here.

“This is modernism in all its technicolor glory, Chicago style: the literary ladies and the porkpackers, the Bronzeville poets and the scribbling ad-men. Dazzlingly learned, revelatory and a cracking great read.”—Deborah Cohen, Northwestern University
