Superior Stories
Helen Raica-Klotz will read from her fiction collection, Superior Stories, winner of the 2025 Michigan Writers Cooperative Press Chapbook Contest. Helen's stories explore the lives of people who live in the northernmost part of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, the Keweenaw.
Bryan Gruley (award-winning author of Bitterfrost, Starvation Lake, and other novels) notes "Raica-Klotz conjures evocative settings and richly layered up-north characters with a language that is at once concrete and elegiac, painting a hard yet enchanting landscape.
