Books

The Appalaches

Novelist, song-writer, poet, Steven Cope presents us with one-thousand-and-one Appalaches, his name for these lively and original proverbs...

In Killdeer's Field

...serious stuff, highly intellectual, though straight from the heart of this man forever linked in spirit, soul, and body to the Appalachian mountains...

The Furrbawl Poems

All of Cope’s poems from 1973-1993 not previously collected. The book chronicles Cope’s development as a poet...

The Book of Saws

These are fables and tales like none you've ever read before. Here you'll find the wisdom of the ages distilled from copper coils and coal veins...

Sassafras

An unexpected winter storm descends on the small town of Jolene, Kentucky, and with it a chill of fear and uncertainty when two of the town's children...

Crow!

More than 200 poems to delight, entertain, and educate youngsters from 6 to 90 years. Illustrated by Julie Baumgardner, Steve's younger sis...

The White Doors

With satire as black as vintage Vonnegut, with an eye and ear for the details of small-town life that echoes Bradbury, Cope writes like a force . . .

Clover's Log

Though there are indeed lighter as well as profoundly spiritual moments, Clover’s Log follows by and large a descent into pain, separation . . .

The Mad Reverend

in The Mad Reverend, Cope gives us a startling collection of poems in the words of one who he says is "not so much a person as a state of mind."...

The Frogville Skits

Poet, musician, songwriter novelist, spinner of fables and tales -- now the versatile Cope is a playwright as well.

Crow 2

Steve's second volume of poetry for kids, over 200 more poems from the "Old Crow" persona created by the poet for the original Crow! More wonderful artwork from Julie Baumgardner.

Selected Poems

A cross-section of poetry selected by Steve himself from his six previous collections produced over the last 10 years. A significant and important milestone.
