Bøger i Southern Poetry Anthology serien

Home of the first settlement in the United States and known as Old Dominion and The Mother of Presidents, the state of Virginia's artistic output proves among the most fecund in the nation, evidenced in this ninth volume of The Southern Poetry Anthology. This collection includes well-known, established, and celebrated poets such as Charles Wright, Claudia Emerson, Gregory Orr, Ellen Bryant Voigt, R. T. Smith, Forrest Gander, and Rita Dove, and the editors have dedicated equal focus on newer, diverse poets who continue to broaden and enrich the literary legacy of this beautiful state.

"Ranked among the top in the nation for its range of overall biodiversity, Alabama is far more variegated than many first assume. With its volatile history, its extraordinary landscapes, and its breadth of human perspectives, Alabamians have been underrepresented in Southern poetry, and this volume seeks to shed light on established and new, diverse voices in the Yellowhammer State."--
