50 Books about Appalachia That Aren't Hillbilly Elegy
Avoid the stereotypes! This list was inspired by Kendra Winchester's article for Book Riot, but we added our own favorite books & writers from the region. For a discussion of past & current Appalachian writers, please see our Shelf Life interview with Natalie Sypolt and Laura Leigh Morris at "Appalachian Writers – City Books (citybookspgh.com)."
This is a multi-genre, multi-gender, multi-racial list.
