Deep & Wild Reviewed by The Fourth River

December 21, 2024

We love this favorable and personal review of Laura Jackson’s debut by The Fourth River. The reviewer begins their piece by saying:

Of all the West Virginia narratives I’ve heard (and trust me, I’ve heard plenty), none have captured that contradictory nature so well as does Deep & Wild: On Mountains, Opossums & Finding Your Way in West Virginia. Laura Jackson’s debut essay collection, winner of the 2023 Autumn House Nonfiction Prize, is a thoughtful, raucous love song to Jackson’s home state, its landscape, and its culture.
