Description:
In "Northwest of Boston," Stephen O'Connor's characters live the human drama fully in stories that range from the humorous to the poignant. They go to the crossroads to face their demons, come to terms with the fleeting nature of life and love, and find the courage to follow their own compass. For some, that means an evolution; for others, a steadfast embrace of a world that is passing away.

He lives in Lowell, Massachusetts, with his wife and two children. He is also the author of the soon-to-be-published historical novel The Spy in the City of Books.
