Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The journey away and back again provides the narrative framework for many of the stories in this, the first short story anthology for North Carolina published in more than 30 years. But the 22 stories that comprise this collection are a powerful testament to the continuing vitality of the literary tradition of the Tar Heel State.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A marvelous collection
This is an absolutely wonderful collection of stories by some of the country's best current writers. Maya Anglou's troubling story about the difficulty of containing the past and Tim McLaurin's powerful tale of sin and redemption alone are worth the price of admission.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One of the finest anthologies of contemporary writers.
"THE ROUGH ROAD HOME is a stunning collection and a landmark book." --Josephine Humphreys "[A] fine and affectionate anthology." --Will Blythe, literary editor for ESQUIRE "This superlative collection, elegantly and thoughtfully edited by RObert Gingher, shows a wonderful creativity and a wide diversity of voices. THere is real pleasure and excitement here for every reader who cares about contemporary fiction." --George Garrett
