Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis
has defined Appalachia for much of the nation. What about
Hillbilly Elegy
accounts for this explosion of interest during this period of political turmoil? Why have its ideas raised so much controversy? And how can debates about the book catalyze new, more inclusive political agendas for the region’s future?
Appalachian Reckoning
is a retort, at turns rigorous, critical, angry, and hopeful, to the long shadow
has cast over the region and its imagining. But it also moves beyond

makes clear Appalachia’s intellectual vitality, spiritual richness, and progressive possibilities.
