This collection also claimed to be firmly rooted in place/history, but I really did not get that from reading it. It could have been set almost anywhere, which felt disappointing to me.

If you’re looking for new talent, look no further. Anoka by Shane Hawk is short, clocking in at only 84 pages and with only six short stories, but packs a big punch. Featuring the town of Anoka, Minnesota—purportedly the Halloween capital of the world—and exploring universal human themes through the lens of indigenous life, Anoka is a debut with astounding power.
