Heartland recounts the author's experience growing up in rural Kansas in a family struggling financially. Raised by a single mother, Smarsh faced poverty, food insecurity, and limited opportunities from a young age. Despite her circumstances, she excelled in school and pursued higher education, only to find that the economic disparities she faced in her childhood continued to follow her. With poignant prose and unflinching honesty, Heartland explores the complexities of class, poverty, and the pursuit of the American dream in a nation where wealth and opportunity are often out of reach for many.
