Robert Morgan is the bestselling author of numerous works of fiction--including the Oprah Book Club selection Gap Creek--and non-fiction, and is also an established poet with fourteen collections to his credit.

"His stripped-down and almost primitive sentences burn with the
raw, lonesome pathos of Hank Williams's best songs."
--The New York Times Book Review
"Morgan . . . shows what it was like to be human in a time and
place now far removed from modern America. He creates living,
breathing souls who, as transparent as their dreams and fears may
seem today, demand to be taken seriously."
--The Orlando Sentinel
"Gripping storytelling, indelible sense of time and place . . .
Morgan turns the stories of prosaic lives into page-turners." --The
Raleigh News and Observer
