Stay And Fight is a novel set in Appalachian Ohio. Written by Madeline Ffitch, this book is about three women who decide to band together and make a life together. They build a house. They forage for food. When food is scarce they enjoy acorn pancakes with pemmican. The three women have a problem with black rat snakes invading their house living in their pantry, under the sink, and in the silverware drawer. This novel is about family but also about nature. The characters in the story are raw and cantankerous and flawed. I thought it was an interesting tale about how 3 women split a house, meals, and work.
