"Short stories with a corrosive, bent, off-beat quality brighten From the Bottom Up. Characters one can't easily forget . . . Wilson's work has a Tennessee regionalism that shifts to universal dimensions."
—Malcolm Boyd, Los Angeles Times
Description
Leigh Allison Wilson is, as one of her narrators says of the country music lover, “an inveterate truth seeker who, deep down, believes every word is at best a pack of decent lies and at worst a matter of opinion.” This debut collection was one of the first two winners of the Flannery O’Connor Award for Short Fiction.
