Wisconsin short story author
Last year I read a good collection of short stories called TIME BETWEEN TRAINS by Anthony Bukoski. Bukoski was born in a Polish neighborhood in Superior, Wisconsin and his stories feature characters living, working, growing up, falling in love and growing older in that small northern town. I was amazed that an author could imagine so many different lives with such different histories all located in a small Wisconsin town. Some of his themes include a town dealing with a declining population, once vibrant immigrant communities that are slowing losing their importance in people's lives and whole industries in decline that once supported families for generations. His other titles include POLONAISE and CHILDREN OF STRANGERS. He also has a new book that's currently on order called NORTH OF THE PORT which can be put on hold. This is definitely a Wisconsin author more people should be aware of.
