Down Along the Piney is John Mort’s fourth short-story collection
and winner of the Richard Sullivan Prize in Short Fiction. With
settings in Florida, California, Mexico, Chicago, the Texas
Panhandle, and, of course, the Ozarks themselves, these thirteen
stories portray the unsung, amusing, brutal, forever hopeful lives
of ordinary people. Mort chronicles the struggles of "flyover"
people who live not just in the Midwest, but anywhere you can find
a farm, small town, or river winding through forested hills. Mort,
whose earlier stories have appeared in the New Yorker, GQ, and The
Chicago Tribune, is the author of the award-winning Vietnam War
novel Soldier in Paradise, as well as Goat Boy of the Ozarks and
The Illegal. These ironic, unflaggingly honest stories will remind
the reader of Jim Harrison, Sherwood Anderson, and Shirley Jackson.
