After receiving poetry MFAs from the Iowa Writers Workshop, our former undergrads DANNY KHALASTCHI and CARYL PAGEL returned to Wisconsin. They now live in Milwaukee where they run Rescue Press. To date Rescue Press has published two books of poetry and, most recently, a collection of fiction by Madeline McDonnell. (The cover to McDonnell's book is shown above.) There will be more releases in 2011. Much more information about the press, its books, and its authors can be found at the website www.rescue-press.org.
