Just finished John Grishams new novel, Gray Mountain, and I loved it. If his research is to be believed, and I think it is, it is another terrible indictment of the coal industry. How strip mining destruction is allowed to continue, is amazing. The whole problem is an eye-opener for our heroine who comes to a Virginia Legal Aid Clinic and learns first hand how Big Coal skates around laws that it regularly ignores or breaks. Regulations are flouted and everyone suffers. According to the Washington Post, This is muckraking of a high order. If it’s possible for a major novelist to shame our increasingly shameless society, “Gray Mountain” might do it.
