Self-described working class writer and factory worker Frank Bill speaks candidly about the personal stories that inform his searing new novel Back to the Dirt, and the psychological and physical devastation that has ripped through his home turf of southern Indiana. Inspired in part by the story of his father, a Marine who served in Vietnam as an infantryman and mine sweeper, and pictures Frank, as a boy, found in father’s closet. Frank Bill provides us with visceral evidence of the problems afflicting our Heartland in a raw, compassionate and hard-hitting story that harkens back to 1960s Danang.
