Township - Paperback

by Jamie Lyn Smith (Author)

Set in Appalachian Ohio, Jamie Lyn Smith's debut short story collection, Township, explores a region and the rotating cast of characters who call it home. With honesty and empathy, Smith closely examines the strains that intimate family ties put on lives worn raw by collective history. Ultimately, the nine stories in Township interrogate the notion of reconciliation, examining whether people can truly change and if forgiveness is possible.
