Smokestack Lightening Stories by Stephen Oconnor

Thirteen stories set in and around the Merrimack Valley in Massachusetts, this volume is not in its third printing.

Stephen OConnor is a storyteller in the great tradition of Sherwood Anderson and William Saroyan-- David Daniel, author of Renuion and Coffin Dust
Emotional, rich in word craft, Stephen OConnors stories evoke strong responses and a solid following -- Bill Brocato, Houston Literary Review
Stephen OConnor is funny, mysterious, tough yet romantic, like everybody from Lowell, I guess, but with the Howlin' Wolf bred in. -- David Lenson, The Massachusetts Review

Stephen P. O'Connor is a native of Lowell, Massachusetts, home of Beat author Jack Kerouac, where much of his writing is set. He is the author of Smokestack Lightning, a collection of short stories, and the novels The Spy in the City of Books and The Witch at Rivermouth." O'Connor has worked as a roofer, a garbage collector, a harvester of grapes, a drywall man, a shoe salesman, a factory hand, and for more than twenty years, a high school teacher. He earned master's degrees from University College Dublin and UMass Boston, and has lived and worked in Ireland and in France. O'Connor lives with his wife Olga and their two children in Lowell. When he's not working or writing he can be found walking in the woods, drinking coffee downtown, playing soccer with the old boys or cranking out Irish tunes on a fiddle inherited from his Uncle Eddie.
