Columbus, Ohio.  "Hot lava two-step."  Perhaps this non-fiction tale is too Southern, too European and too Hispanic for midwestern tastes.  As the story documents, there is an abundance of "diversity" in this family.  Midwesterners will call it "confusion" but will also be seduced by the family's charm and understanding of its imperfections.
