Parallel - Paperback

by Sharon Erby (Author)

Bound by circumstance and tradition, mocked by the turnpike that bisects their farmland, folks folded into the ridges overlooked by Timmons Mountain sense the world is literally passing them by. Their tales reveal the resilience of the human spirit as they evince paradoxical change. "We read it with enthusiasm, and experienced the narration and point of view of a working-class woman as strong, unpredictable, and convincing." -Minnie Bruce Pratt, Feminist Studies Board Sharon Erby graduated from the MFA Program in Creative Writing at Wilkes University. She teaches Creative Writing at Wilson College, Chambersburg, PA, a liberal arts college dedicated to the education of women.
