Angela Mogin asked this question about
Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis:
Was anyone else as horrified as I at those aspects of the Hillbilly culture the author praises?  Mamaw was mean; she cussed, threatened and used physical violence and he admires her- why?
David Edmonds
At least Mamaw was stable. the bar was pretty low.
