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?
Darth No. That sounds like a grandma to me - LOVE YOU GRANDMA PEGGY! R.I.P.
