Award-winning 27 Views of Hillsborough is an anthology about life in a small Southern town.
Something other than history has drawn dozens of writers to make this much storied, colonial town their home. In 27 Views of Hillsborough, over two dozen authors who currently live here or who have lived here in the past use essays, short stories, and poetry to tell of the community's past and present. Some of the authors whose work is included are Allan Gurganus, Lee Smith, Michael Malone, Randall Kenan, Jill McCorkle, Craig Nova, Barry Jacobs, Peter Wood, Jerry Eidenier, Nancy Goodwin, Hal Crowther, Jaki Shelton Green, and Jeffrey Beam.
