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. 588 0 Print version record. 650 0 American literature|zAppalachian Region|vBio-bibliography. 650 7 SOCIAL SCIENCE|xGeneral.|2bisacsh 650 7 LITERARY COLLECTIONS|xAmerican|xGeneral.|2bisacsh 650 7 American literature.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00807113 651 0 Appalachian Region|vLiterary collections. 651 7 Appalachian Region.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01240092 655 7 Bio-bibliography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423685 655 7 Literary collections.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423811 655 7 Electronic books.|2local 700 1 Brosi, George. 700 1 Egerton, Katherine E. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tAppalachian gateway.|b1st ed.|dKnoxville : The University of Tennessee Press, 2013|z9781572339446 |w(DLC) 2013001460|w(OCoLC)826323294 914 ocn841493620 994 93|bGTK
