Lake Street Stories

AN ANTHOLOGY OF 12 SHORT STORIES BY TWIN CITIES AUTHORS (2018)

ABOUT LAKE STREET: Lake Street cuts across Minneapolis from west to east, from the urbane to the urban to the blue-collar. North and south, it is the dividing line between inner-city neighborhoods and tidy bedroom communities. Lake Street is a polyglot of people from all corners of the world mixing with lifelong Minneapolitans. It lives and breathes and pulsates with energy born of hope for a new beginning, with the history of what was.

Published prior to the murder of George Floyd and the resulting riots focused on Lake Street, Lake Street Stories is a love letter to a street that is not defined by our pain but by our hopes.
