University Press of Kentucky launches new literary imprint with award-winning author Silas House
The University Press of Kentucky announces the launch of Fox Hill Books, a new literary imprint edited by award-winning and bestselling author Silas House. Dedicated to publishing exceptional literature rooted in working-class experiences, Fox Hill Books will elevate emerging voices and spotlight established writers from both urban and rural Appalachia while remaining open to works from beyond the region that align with its mission. The imprint will publish short story collections, poetry, essays, and novels that offer nuanced, authentic depictions of working-class and Appalachian communities, to expand public understanding and complexify the lives of those who are often reduced to stereotypes in mass media.
