Aaron Gwyn recommends
The County Line (2024)
Steve Weddle
"A slide into the American Abyss from one of our best fiction writers. Steve Weddle's spectacular novel dramatizes how, in this country, all that glitters is only a gleam away from all that guilt."
Bull Mountain (2015)
(Bull Mountain, book 1)
Brian Panowich
"With echoes of Faulkner'sSanctuary and McCarthy'sNo Country for Old Men, Brian Panowich's debut novel is Cain and Abel for a sticky South. Strong as bootleg whiskey, smooth as the action of a well-oiled pistol, Bull Mountain is a beautiful, harrowing debut and so much fun, it ought to be against the law."
