Fiction. "There is a sureness to these stories that arises from an intimate and absolute understanding of the landscape from which they arise. The characters are true and wholly realized, their conflicts as urgent and as current as the daily news. Not sensationalized but forthrightly told, these stories are of the times as well the region. Here is contemporary Appalachia."
