Final contest judge and award-winning author Carmen Maria Machado (Her Body and Other Parties) described the work as ?a wonderful debut; a collection of frank, funny, and heartbreaking stories that delve into the mire of human loneliness.?

If you prefer folklore with a historical touch, you can learn about Theodosia Burr Alston in Charles Harry Whedbee's Lady in Distress and about Francis Marion in Daniel W. Barefoot's Ghostly Legacy of the Swamp Fox. The folklorists included here claim stomping grounds from the high peaks and mountain hollows to the flatlands to the swamps to the barrier islands to the briny deep. What they share is a love of their subject and the ability to bring it to life on the page.…
