People Live Here: Stories from Yakima presents fourteen flash fiction and short story pieces set in the early 2010s in the center of Washington State. These stories capture a moment in a place that is both foreign and familiar. They peek into orchards, convenience stores, assisted living homes, and gang streets for glimpses of lives both connected and separated by one American town. The collection features "Starlings," winner of Carve Magazine's Editor's Choice Award. It was also a fiction semi-finalist for the St. Lawrence Book Award.
