Our most popular story in this category was about the upcoming retirement of UW-Madison professor Ron Wallace, the co-director of UW-Madison’s creative writing program as well as an accomplished poet. The Wisconsin Book Festival was popular as well, with a preview of the festival in the number four spot and a story about last-minute festival addition Jesse Eisenberg at number three. Sandwiching those stories is a review of Madison music journalist Susan Masino’s AC/DC FAQ and an interview with author and archeologist Eric Cline, who foretells doom for our planet if we don’t knock it off with the carbon emissions.
