By Keely Burkey

March 7, 2014 by OoliganPress Leave a Comment

When I first signed on to read and write about Cataclysms on the Columbia: The Great Missoula Floods, I was wary. Out of all of Ooligan Press’s extensive backlist, Cataclysms was what I would have been least likely to pick up on my own. However, as I read, I realized how misguided I had been. […]

As I am new to the city of Portland, Brew to Bikes: Portland’s Artisan Economy immediately caught my attention. What better book to pick up for a crash course in all the unique things the city has to offer? However, I soon discovered that the book is a bit more than a guidebook for tourists […]

Backlist to the Future: Blue Thread

A Hero for Adults Both Young and Not-So-Young I still read young adult books. Maybe I’m not supposed to. I’m certainly not a young adult anymore. However, many young adult books tackle the same issues that adult fiction novels attempt to wrestle with; and usually, these issues are dealt with in a more honest and […]

Backlist to the Future: The Weight of the Sun by Geronimo Tagatac

By Rebekah Hunt The Weight of the Sun, a short story collection by Geronimo Tagatac, is one of my favorite books on our backlist. The stories are set up as separate pieces in a compilation, but they share a common thread that connects them all. Initially, I found the transitions between stories jarring and disorienting. […]
