Synopsis

The stories of Appalachia are the stories of America. This collection is an important step towards understanding Appalachia as it is, and as it has become. It is a step long overdue. . . .Innovation and reinvention are at the heart of Appalachian identity. Our goals for this book are to reveal the values and forces of our contemporary culture, to share the exciting change occurring in our writing, and so to celebrate this powerful force in American literature.
