Critically acclaimed author Silas House's A
Parchment of Leaves was named Kentucky Novel of the
Year and won a special achievement award from the
Fellowship of Southern Writers. In 1917 rural
Kentucky, Saul Sullivan marries a beautiful Cherokee
woman named Vine. They weather the storm of
prejudice, but when Saul temporarily moves away to
work a better job, his younger brother makes advances
on Vine that are not welcome and ultimately lead to tragedy.
Publishers Weekly praises Houses lovely storytelling, graceful prose, strong
characters and his feel for Southern rural life.
