“No Son of Mine is a deeply personal view of what it means to be a son, and when one has to stop being a son and become someone else — a husband, a friend, or even oneself.” New review of NO SON OF MINE by Jonathan Corcoran. University Press of Kentucky southernreviewofbooks.com/2024/05/03/no-…

I'm just over the moon that Jayne Anne Phillips has won the Pulitzer Prize in Fiction for Night Watch. So deserved! Her work is such an important part of American literature. Nobody writes like her. Celebrate JA!

So happy to share my small contribution on why The Pulitzer Prizes winner Jayne Anne Phillips is so great and why she deserves all the praise. Thanks to Literary Hub for giving me the space to talk about Phillips' writing and kind mentorship. And thanks to University Press of Kentucky for arranging.

"It turned out that reading Phillips’ stories and novels was a crash course in how the dust of conflict lands everywhere, how the reverberations from foreign battles are felt in the places we consider safe." Jonathan Corcoran lithub.com/in-praise-of-p…

You all, THAT book is currently no. 1 on Amazon right now. Do me a favor and get out there and buy a book--any book--from an Appalachian author you love. Don't let this man set and control the narrative of a region (or God forbid, the whole country).
