Donald Harington

Donald Harington was a significant American author whose works often take place in the fictional town of Stay More in the Ozark Mountains, inspired by his childhood. Despite losing most of his hearing at a young age, he masterfully captured and portrayed the unique language and spirit of the Ozark dwellers. Though acclaimed by many as one of America's greatest contemporary writers, his novels remain remarkably undiscovered by the wider public. Critics celebrate his uniquely original and distinctive body of work, calling it an undiscovered continent within American letters.
