Descriere magazin:
A collection of stories twenty years in the making from celebrated Kentucky author Gurney Norman . This is an expanded, jacketed hardcover edition of Allegiance , a collection of linked stories by celebrated Kentucky author Gurney Norman . The new edition features an introduction by the author, a foreword by Leatha Kendrick, and a cover painting by Appalachian artist Pam Oldfield Meade. Allegiance is an autobiography told through stories, a personal journey into Norman\'s life, place, and consciousness. Spanning forty years of work, the stories are told in the voice of Norman\'s fictional narrator, Wilgus Collier, or in stream-of-consciousness writing. A selection of nonfiction pieces comprises the book\'s epilogue. Allegiance follows Norman\'s/Collier\'s struggle to understand his working-class childhood and navigate midlife alcoholism and depression. From the coalfields of Appalachia to the center of the 1960s counterculture and back again to Kentucky, Norman\'s journey has been a life of many movements.
