Episode Synopsis

In this week's episode, Jason Crockett joins us as we sit down and talk about Appalachian literature. We have curated a starter pack for you if you love Appalachia like we do. We're talking what defines Appalachia as a region, what are true trademarks of the people of Appalachia, and the harmful stereotype that has been created. We also will discuss what makes Appalachian authors so fantastic, and why they are deep storytellers. We hope you enjoy this starter pack!Lord yes, thank you for listenin'Today's resources:The Land Breakers by John EhleCold Mountain by Charles FrazierThe Orchard Keeper by Cormac McCarthyDemon Copperhead by Barbara KingsolverCades Cove: The Life and Death of an Appalachian Community by Durwood Dunn#booktube #booktok #bookstagram #ReadersofYouTube #Bookish #CurrentlyReading #BookCommunity #BookRecommendations #BookReview #BookLovers #Lit #Literature #author #appalachia #eastTN #appalachianmountains Theme song for A Deadman's Books: Surfing! by automaticbananas Hosted on Acast.
