Description
Running On Red Dog Road And Other Perils of an Appalachian Childhood by Drema Hall Berkheimer is a memoir that reads like a novel, weaving together intrigue, sweeping emotion and indisputable charm. Growing up in 1940s Appalachia, Drema's childhood was marked by the loss of her father, her mother's departure to work as a Rosie the Riveter, and her care under devout Pentecostal grandparents. The author's coming of age is coloured by the presence of gypsies, faith-healers, moonshiners, snake handlers, tent revivals with Grandpa, poetry-writing hobos, and traveling carnivals. This memoir serves as a testament to a multi-generational family of saints and sinners whose lives defy stereotypes, and Drema's own journey defies expectations. A story of life and faith in an Appalachian childhood, Running On Red Dog Road is a testament to the power of truth, which often lies beyond fiction.
