Abstract

This paper aims at discussing the concept of realism in Grisham’s novel, Gray
Mountain. Grisham’s works are really based on his profession, as an attorney. He is an
interesting author because he is also a politician and an activist. As a social activist as
well as politician, he has great concern on social justice. This paper explores the
author’s ideas about injustice reflected in the Gray Mountain. The impacts of the coal
mining industry to the social, political and economic in this region are also become the
focused of this paper. The study results showed that the events depicted in Gray
Mountain were based on the reality of the occurrences in Appalachian society. The
novel can be considered as a reflection or criticism of this community.
