To write or to write, the author dilemma of 2020. Certainly, life has become stranger than fiction, so eleven Appalachian authors gathered their courage and dug deep to present a flowing anthology of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry inspired by Covid-19 or rewritten during the pandemic. Here reside near-autobiographical tales of hardscrabble mountain education, plus familial and societal laments. Even a dragon hides amidst the pages. It’s a well-knit, often emotional read of reflection, eyeing our present, and looking ahead. All is not lost. No, some things have merely been Shelved.
