Dr Sarah Robertson is a senior lecturer in American Literature at UWE Bristol.
“Robertson’s elegant, carefully researched study explores the diversity and complexity of Appalachia, the most stereotyped and “othered” region of America, as revealed in its gothic literature. Focusing especially on recent decades, Robertson shows the gothic horrors created through extraction of the region’s resources, and the resulting legacy of despair.” — Charles L. Crow, Professor Emeritus of English, Bowling Green State University “A thoroughly sourced and nuanced examination of the ways that Gothic Appalachian literature has provided fertile ground for authors and readers to explore regional and national crises, race, identity, climate change, extractive capitalism, and belongingness.” — Dr. Elizabeth Catte, Historian and Writer of Compact Non-Fiction “Sarah Robertson’s Gothic Appalachian Literature takes the Southern Gothic into exciting new territory. This book offers an apt ecological, social, and narrative recoding of Appalachia in literature with a watchmaker’s style and pacing. Its larger social and ecological implications are overt, up front, and much needed in Southern Gothic criticism.” — Lee Rozelle Hugh, The University of Montevallo
