Brownsville: Stories
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Brownsville: Stories is a short story collection by American author Oscar Casares. It was published in 2003 by Back Bay Books and was his first book. The title is taken from Casares’ hometown of Brownsville, Texas, where the loosely related stories in the book are set. Brownsville has been honored with several awards and, because of its literary style and structure, has earned comparisons to James Joyce's Dubliners[1].
