Description
Michigan's Upper Peninsula is blessed with a treasure trove of storytellers, poets, and historians, all seeking to capture a sense of Yooper Life from settler's days to the far-flung future. Since 2017, the U.P. Reader offers a rich collection of their voices that embraces the UP's natural beauty and way of life, along with a few surprises.
The 41 short works in this fifth annual volume take readers on UP road and boat trips from the Keweenaw to the Soo. Every section is rich with descriptions of the characters and culture that make the Upper Peninsula worth living in and writing about. UP writers span genres from humor to history and from science fiction to poetry. This issue also includes imaginative fiction from the Dandelion Cottage Short Story Award winners, honoring the amazing young writers enrolled in all of the UP's schools.

Ce que les critiques en disent
"Funny, wise, or speculative, the essays, memoirs, and poems found in the pages of these profusely illustrated annuals are windows to the history, soul, and spirit of both the exceptional land and people found in Michigan's remarkable U.P. If you seek some great writing about the northernmost of the state's two peninsulas look around for copies of the U.P. Reader." (Tom Powers, Michigan in Books)
