Description of O Reads by John F. Lavelle, PhD


At fourteen, Cassie Wolphe s way of life in Appalachia is being changed by the influx of modernity/postmodernity. She is in love with Jake McCollum, believes she will marry him and constructs her life around this central act, but like her brother, Ben, Jake rejects a life he believes offers nothing but hard work and poverty.

Forced to make a decision between her love of Jake and her love of the mountains, Cassie finds she can’t leave, a choice which may define her life forever. At once lyrical, emotionally charged, moving and heartbreaking, Oreads is a literary treat that will keep you compelled right to the very last page and beyond.”
