Very good collection of short stories and poetry.. I now want to purchase the entire series.
This issue of Northern Appalachia Review lives up to the journal's mission to showcase diverse voices from this under-recognized region. The poetry, fiction, and non-fiction in a range of styles engages with the region's human and natural environments of coal and farm country, struggling towns, mountain retreats and threatened ecosystems. From the crows on the cover to David B. Prather's "Bitter Supper" this is serious work, in a world where "entire sentences/open their ravenous wings." But the writing is also rooted in the warm hearts, tough human ties, and strong will of folks from the five states that make up Northern Appalachia.
This review is packed with poems and stories full of emotion and sensitive reminiscences. Wonderful reading!
This issue of Northern Appalachia Review is a gem! I encourage everyone to support this journal, as they bring a special regional voice to the literary conversation.
