Books. I loved Christy by Catherine Marshall. I have A Walk In The Woods by Bill Bryson on my reading list. Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver was terrific.

Movies. I found Winter's Bone starring Jennifer Lawrence fascinating and thought-provoking.

Music, anyone?
 
I miss running around on my great-grandfather's 30 acres! Feet splashing in the creek and hide-and-seek with the cousins

Winter's Bone is set in the Ozarks, not Appalachia. :)

I love that movie.

Ugh. :( Sorry.

I sometimes get ahead of myself and neglect to do a thorough job of researching my subject when I'm excited about a new project.

Thanks for setting me straight!

No apologies necessary! There are many similarities.

i stopped reading barbara kingsolver after a while because it seemed like every male character in her books was always a moron, and after a while it gets predictable and tedious

I tried reading one book and couldn't get 1/3 through it. I don't even remember the name, it's around here somewhere. I think it's blue.
 
I lived there for a while. I love Mountain Laurels!
 
Thanks, Zumi!

I only read the one book.



How about The Dollmaker? It's set in Kentucky, but I'm not sure if it's the Appalachian part or not.

It's been years since I've seen it, but I remember the soundtrack was beautiful.
 
I haven't read any of her fiction.

The book I read was about growing things. And eating. :)
 
Just finished reading A History of Appalachia by Richard B. Drake. Interesting read.. Also, if you're interested in the area and peoples, the Foxfire series of books are very good. Some beautiful country can be found throughout the entire region. Kudos to Irezumi to pointing out the extent of the Appalachia range.. Most folks do think of it as only W.Virginia, Eastern Kentucky-Tennessee and northern Georgia.
 
A thread about things Appalachian and no attribution to its inspiration nor acknowledgement of its hillapes like Johnboy and his clan?

Oh, well...

...what was always known as a fail on the old GB is just another playgrounder thread today.
