ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“Gray Mountain” by John Grisham follows Samantha Kofer, a young lawyer from New York City who is furloughed during the 2008 financial crisis. Seeking a new purpose, she takes an internship at the Mountain Legal Aid Clinic in rural Appalachia. There, she becomes deeply involved in representing local communities affected by the coal industry, dealing with issues like black lung disease and environmental degradation. As she navigates the complexities of legal aid work, Samantha faces ethical dilemmas, personal growth, and the harsh realities of a legal system that favors powerful corporations over vulnerable individuals. Themes include justice, inequality, and corporate greed.
