Linked stories trace the vocational and emotional bargains made by workers at a Colorado sausage factory.
It's almost a decade after the Great Recession, and in Colorado, St. Anthony Sausage has not recovered. Neither have its employees: a laid-off railway engineer, an exiled computer whiz, a young woman estranged from her infant daughter, an older man with cancer who lacks health care. As these low-wage workers interact under the supervision of the factory's owner and his quietly rebellious daughter, they come to understand that in America's postindustrial landscape, although they may help or comfort each other, they also have to do what's best for themselves.
Rachel King is the author of the novel People along the Sand. Her short stories have appeared in One Story, North American Review, Green Mountains Review, Northwest Review, and elsewhere. A graduate of the University of Oregon and West Virginia University, she lives in her hometown of Portland, Oregon.
