Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. The New York Times bestseller . A Southern Book Prize finalist " An achingly intelligent memoir . . . we finally have an Appalachian memoir worthy of its origins." -New York Times Book Review "Unflinching . . . Hackney gives readers an intimate look at a way of life unfamiliar to many. . . . A gripping exploration of identity, class, religion and a large swath of American life that is fighting with all its might to survive." -Atlanta Journal Constitution In her luminous debut, Emilee Hackney offers both a love letter to and a reckoning of the place that made her-a story of losing her faith, finding her way back to her Appalachian home, and discovering what endures Born and raised deep in the hollers of the Appalachian Mountains, Emilee Hackney knew little beyond the ridgelines and coalfields of southwest Virginia. As an eighth-generation Appalachian, her childhood was steeped in the stories of her grandparents-tales of the coal mines' brutal grip and the way the land, both beautiful and unforgiving, never quite let anyone go. At fourteen, Emilee meets Sam, a senior at her high school, who offers her a glimpse at a promising future together. But as they begin attending services at Deliverance Christian Church as a couple, Emilee is thrust into the radical realm of Pentecostalism. In a culture where marriage at nineteen isn't uncommon, Emilee is engaged to Sam. Eager to make her relationship work, she embraces the extremist doctrines of the religion, submitting herself fully to God, to Sam, and to a life of repentance. But what she doesn't yet know is the man she plans to marry is not who he claims to be. Years later, Emilee finds herself isolated from friends, family, and her own sense of truth. Wracked with shame and self-doubt, she reaches a breaking point. On the verge of spiraling out of control, in a stunning act of defiance and hope, she applies to Harvard; against all odds, she is accepted. From the magisterial mountains of Tazewell to the storied halls of Cambridge, Emilee begins the arduous process of reinventing herself and her relationships with her home, faith, and values against the backdrop of the divisive 2016 election. All That's Unseen is Emilee Hackney's fiercely honest memoir about spiritual entrapment, hard-won liberation, and the courage to reclaim her voice after she had been taught to stay silent.…
