| 520 | _a"Gena of the Appalachians" by Clarence Monroe Wallin is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book explores the life and struggles of Gena, the daughter of the notorious outlaw Lucky Joe, amidst the harsh realities of Appalachian life. It delves into themes of hardship, societal expectations, and the quest for personal redemption and kindness in a community marked by crime and poverty. The opening of the novel sets the tone through the somber burial of Lucky Joe, emphasizing the mix of fear and respect he commanded in life. Paul Waffington, a layman and Sunday-school speaker, is called upon to preside over his funeral, illustrating his role as a compassionate figure willing to help even in dire circumstances. The chapter quickly shifts focus to the aftermath of Lucky Joe's death, where Gena is left to fend for herself under the harsh rule of her foster father, Jase Dillenburger. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that Gena's life is filled with toil, sorrow, and longing for a better future, with Paul Waffington emerging as a potential ally in her tumultuous life. The narrative effectively contrasts the idyllic beauty of the Appalachian landscape with the grim realities faced by its inhabitants, especially Gena.
