All Things Minnesota

I first visited Minnesota about five years ago while attending the Twin Cities Book Festival.  I quickly developed a love for the city, its statues of pop icons (Mary Tyler Moore and Peanuts characters), and its residents' Midwestern friendliness (PW has an extensive list fall book festivals all over the country).  Since that festival, I returned many times to visit friends in Minneapolis and to enjoy the ambiance of the Twin Cities.  My last visit was just for the American Association of University Presses Annual Meeting in June.

This week, as noted in the title of this post, I'm linking to all things Minnesota and books.  Hope I'm not missing too much.

Thanks for the Graywolf mention. Don't forget Coffee House Press and Milkweed in the Publishers list! Amazon's another good indie bookstore, too.

Thanks, Patrick. You just mentioned Coffee House Press (http://www.coffeehousepress.org/) and Milkweed (http://www.milkweed.org/) for us, but I'll change the post to reflect it.
