Marilou Awiakta’s first book, which examines the impact of the Manhattan Project on the people of Bear Creek Valley, Black Oak Ridge, and other communities along the Clinch River Valley. These communities were ultimately removed to create the planned city of Oak Ridge. I have posted a section of a poem here. I picked this up from George Brosi at the Tennessee Mountain Writers Conference, in Oak Ridge TN. First edition, Very Good condition. #marilouawiakta #abidingappalachia #littledeer #oakridge #rarebooks #firstedition #bookcollection #manhattanproject #bookcollecting #bookcollection #bibliophile #bookporn #bookhunting #bookstagram #modernfirsts #modernfirsteditions #finebooks #signedbooks #shelfie #southernliterature #southernlit #tennessee #appalachianlit #appalachianliterature #kentucky #northcarolina #virginia #westvirginia #appalachianpoetry (at Oak Ridge, Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcHOUyFMTJP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
