Tony Dallacheisa

Tony Dallacheisa

Fiction

Tony Dallacheisa earned an MA in fiction from Ohio University, and he is a lecturer at Kent State University at Tuscarawas, teaching writing, literature, and graphic novels. Tony’s fiction finds him puzzling over the struggles of blue-collar life, where escapism is both a virtue and a vice, a matter of instinct and intellect, a contentious mode of survival. So often, as a result, his characters find themselves staring at inescapable defeat and welcoming further adversity and trauma.

Tony Dallacheisa is working with Benjamin Ludwig.
