- catalog abstract ""Understanding Bobbie Ann Mason explores the literary accomplishments of a writer whose works straddle the line between highbrow literature and popular culture, an author whose writings are studied in academia and loved by general readers. Best known for her short story collections and her novels Feather Crowns, Spence + Lila, and In Country - the last of which is also a motion picture - Mason writes about small-town life in contemporary western Kentucky and the consumer culture that has replaced the agrarian values of previous generations. In this comprehensive analysis, Joanna Price offers an introduction to Mason's nonfiction prose, short stories, and novels, and sheds light on the writer's distinctive style and thematic concerns."--Jacket.".
