This literary companion surveys the works of Lee Smith, a Southern
author lauded for her autobiographical familiarity with Appalachian
settings and characters. Her dialogue captures the distinct voices
of mountain people and their perceptions of local and world events,
ranging from the Civil War to ecology and modernization. Mental and
physical disability and the Southern cultural norm of including the
disabled as both family and community members are recurring themes
in Smith's writing. An A to Z arrangement of entries incorporates
specific titles, and themes such as belonging, healing and death,
humor, parenting and religion.
