520    Featuring the work of twenty-five fiction writers and 
       poets, this anthology is a captivating introduction to the
       finest of contemporary Appalachian literature. Here are 
       short stories and poems by some of the region's most 
       dynamic and best-loved authors: Barbara Kingsolver, Ron 
       Rash, Nikki Giovanni, Robert Morgan, Lisa Alther, and Lee 
       Smith among others. In addition to compelling selections 
       from each writer's work, the book includes biographical 
       sketches and bibliographies for each author. These works 
       encompass a variety of themes that, collectively, capture 
       the essence of Appalachia: love of the land, family ties, 
       and the struggle to blend progress with heritage. This 
       book of fiction is an enlightening companion to non-
       fiction overviews of the region, including the 
       Encyclopedia of Appalachia and A Handbook to Appalachia: 
       An Introduction to the Region, both published by the 
       University of Tennessee Press in 2006. In fact the five 
       sections of this book are the same as those of the 
       Encyclopedia. Educators and students will find this book 
       especially appropriate for courses in creative writing, 
       Appalachian studies and Appalachian literature. Editor 
       George Brosi's foreword presents an historical overview of
       Appalachian Literature, while Kate Egerton and Morgan 
       Cottrell's afterword offers a helpful guide for studying 
       Appalachian literature in a classroom setting.
