Working-class novelist Mike Magnuson is the author of The Right Man for the Job, The Fire Gospels, and Lummox: The Evolution of a Man. His novels have been described as intense, meticulous, disturbing, hilarious, and as being singularly Wisconsin-gothic and pretty much kickass. His miscellaneous writing has appeared in Esquire, Writer’s Digest, Fiction Writer, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, and other publications, and he has recently gone into the studio and recorded a Spoken Word CD entitled Loud!
