Tartt First Fiction Award! This Ditch Walking Love tells the stories of a rural Alabama county on the Cumberland Plateau. A field row to pick through, a river bluff to jump from, or a drive out to Jick's to see his hellfire cars might serve up enough for the people who live here, looking for what they can't make full on their own. Money is scarce. Truth is limited. Desire is the only thing of worth.

Autorenporträt
James Joe Braziel grew up in South Georgia on a small farm where he cut and hauled pulpwood and watermelons in the summers. That life, the people and land there were the first bones of THIS DITCH-WALKING LOVE (Livingston Press, 2021), but it wasn't until he moved out to rural Alabama that the collection (complete at 48,000 words) came to be. He now lives in a cabin he's building by hand with his wife, poet Tina Mozelle Braziel. It is not an easy existence, but a worthwhile one. Days are spent hammering, sawing, cutting firewood, and writing when he's not teaching creative writing at the University of Alabama, Birmingham. He is the author of two novels with Bantam-Birmingham, 35 Miles and Snakeskin Road--books about an environmental disaster in the South in the near future. His other work has appeared in journals and newspapers including an article he wrote for the New York Times about the tornadoes that struck Pratt City in 2011.
