Overview

When Arnie Tuck’s chickens go missing, he naturally assumes it’s Bigfoot. That’s who people blame for everything in the small community of Jimmytown. But after a mysterious encounter with Bigfoot, Arnie staunchly believes that he has misunderstood the mysterious creature, and he gets involved in a mystery that leads him deep into adventure, unexpected friendships, and encounters with strange and terrifying critters far beyond his comfortable little home in the woods. Hillbilly Hymn is the hilarious, heartwarming tale of an ordinary chicken farmer who discovers a world of myth, wonder, and beauty all waiting for him at his doorstep.

Praise for Hillbilly Hymn

“I admire Peter Biles’s deft storytelling—a well-crafted, compelling, and credible voice, and bearing always a profound moral wisdom at the core.”

—Scott Cairns, author of Slow Pilgrim: The Collected Poems



“Hillbilly Hymn is a joyous trip into a backwoods world many Americans would like to forget but which Peter Biles shows is very much alive. The novel presents an array of rustic characters that are treated with respect, empathy, and above all, great humor. Arnie’s voice alone is worth the ride. A delightful book.”

—Mark Walling, East Central University
