Hannum lived in Moundsville, West Virginia and wrote fiction, non-fiction and essays. Many of her books showcased life in the Appalachians ranging from West Virginia down to North Carolina in a style Kirkus Reviews called "very mountain-dewy" in 1969. She also wrote short fiction including a story that Maclean's called "one of the most unusual stories we've ever published" about a man who went to heaven in 1944. Her writing did focus on contemporary themes reflected against this rural backdrop; her first novel Thursday April explored "the meaning of the World War to the mountain folk." Her books have been translated into Italian, Korean, Laotian, Russian, and Yugoslavian. " (from Wikipedia). Very Good .
