Caney Creek: From The Appalachian Mountain Story Collection

A young girl, struggling along with her family to survive the impoverished farm life of the rural Blue Ridge Mountains, strives to find happiness and her place in the world. The chance meeting with a stranger opens up a spectrum of new possibilities and introduces her to a joy she could never have known existed. But, the joy is quickly marked by severe injustice and a tragedy brought on by a community steeped in prejudices, fears, and misplaced humanity. Set during post WWI in the Appalachian Mountains of northwestern North Carolina, Caney Creek is a story that defines a skewed standard of values still prevalent today.
