Nestled in the Smoky Mountains of eastern Tennessee, the
town of Johnson City had always seemed exempt from the anxieties
of modern American life. But when the local hospital treated its
first AIDS patient, a crisis that had once seemed an “urban
problem” had arrived in the town to stay. My Own Country is a
startling but ultimately uplifting portrait of the American
heartland as it confronts—and surmounts—its deepest prejudices
and fears.
Characters: 197. Amazon rating: 4 1/2 stars. Genre:
