Review
I keep buying copies of Creeker to give to all my favorite people - what a warm, smart, funny, and enlightening book it is. An unusual combination of fierce intelligence, unstinting honesty, and engaging narrative voice makes this a standout memoir. - Lee Smith ""One of the finest autobiographies ever written by a native Kentuckian.... Breaks down stereotypes by honestly portraying what life was like, as only an insider can."" - Lexington Herald-Leader ""Her great gift is to render in absolutely limpid fashion what growing up in Appalachia meant, without a trace of sentimentality.... DeRosier's robust language and mordant humor never flag, and she allows us to see and to hear the Appalachian child in the fifty-something psychology professor from Montana."" - Booklist
