Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
In this rich, gothic tale, a young soul comes of age during the fabulous boom and bust years of a Northern California Welsh-immigrant coal mining town in the 19th-century.
Review:
"This debut novel from a newly minted press centers on life in the coal-mining town of Nortonville, CA, in the 1860sà. With heartfelt characters and stunning descriptions, Cunningham presents a historical glimpse of squalor in the mines that will haunt readers. Highly recommended." — Library Journal
Review:
"The Green Age of Asher Witherow is one of the finest debut novels I've ever read. . . . For a twenty-six-year-old novelist to produce this book ought to be impossible, but you hold the shocking evidence in your hands." & Steve Yarbrough, author of The Oxygen Man

Review:
"Rarely does a writer combine a strikingly beautiful prose style with an unerring instinct for storytelling. But this is indeed M. Allen Cunningham's startling accomplishment—in his literary debut, no less. The Green Age of Asher Witherow is an enchanting novel by a lushly talented young writer." & Robert Olen Butler, author of the Pulitzer Prise winning A Good Scent from A Strange Mountain
