Story
Billy Edgewater is a harbinger of doom. Estranged from his family, discharged from the navy and touched by a rising desperation, he sets out hitchhiking home to East Tennessee, where his father is slowly dying. On the road, separately, are Sudy and Bradshaw, brother and sister, and a one-armed con man named Roosterfish. All, in one way or another, have their pasts and futures embroiled with D. L. Harkness, a predator in all the ways there are.

Story
No discussion of great modern authors is complete without mention of Cormac McCarthy, whose rare and blazing talent makes his every work a true literary event. A grand addition to the American literary canon, Suttree introduces readers to Cornelius Suttree, a man who abandons his affluent family to live among a dissolute array of vagabonds along the Tennessee river.

Story
William Gay’s work has appeared in Harper’s, The Georgia Review, and G.Q. Like Larry Brown, Gay creates deeply layered tales that plumb the depths of the human heart. The Long Home focuses on a volatile triangle of deception, love, and guilt. As Nathan Winer grows up in a rural Tennessee community, his life, and those closest to him, are touched by the evil that dwells in one ruthless and powerful man.

Story
It is 1917, in that sliver of borderland that divides Georgia from Alabama. Dispossessed farmer Pearl Jewett ekes out a hardscrabble existence with his three young sons: Cane (the eldest, handsome, intelligent); Cob (short, heavyset, a bit slow); and Chimney (the youngest, thin, ill-tempered). Several hundred miles away in Southern Ohio, a farmer by the name of Ellsworth Fiddler lives with his son, Eddie, and his wife, Eula.

What did you love best about Provinces of Night?
The poetry and succinctness of the writing. The metaphors and bleak or beautiful descriptions took my breath away. Narration by Dick Hill seemed as if written for him to tell the tale.Who was your favorite character and why?
Cannot pick a favorite, all had their charm, ferocity, humorous, or darkly enchanting narratives.Any additional comments?
You won't regret the time you spend in the Provinces of Night....Story and Narration a perfect match
