Product Description
This collection gathers the best work of flourishing but often-neglected avant-garde southern poets, deepening understanding of modern poetry and poetics. Another South is an anthology of poetry from contemporary southern writers who are working in forms that are radical, innovative, and visionary. Highly experimental and challenging in nature, the poetry in this volume, with its syntactical disjunctions, formal revolutions, and typographic playfulness, represents the direction of a new breed of southern writing that is at once universal in its appeal and regional in its flavor. Focusing on poets currently residing in the South, the anthology includes both emerging and established voices in the national and international literary world From the invocations of Andy Young's "Vodou Headwashing Ceremony" to the blues-informed poems of Lorenzo Thomas and Honoree Jeffers, from the different voicings of John Lowther and Kalamu ya Salaam to the visual, multi-genre art of Jake Berry, David Thomas Roberts, and Bob Grumman, the poetry in Another South is rich in variety and enthusiastic in its explorations of new ways to embody place and time.These writers have made the South lush with a poetic avant-garde all its own, not only redefining southern identity and voice but also offering new models of what is possible universally through the medium of poetry. Hank Lazer's introductory essay about "Kudzu textuality" contextualizes the work by these contemporary innovators. Like the uncontrollable runaway vine that entwines the southern landscape, their poems are hyperfertile, stretching their roots and shoots relentlessly, at once destructive and regenerative. In making a radical departure from nostalgic southern literary voices, these poems of polyvocal abundance are closer in spirit to "speaking in tongues" or apocalyptic southern folk art - primitive, astonishing, and mystic. ...

nothing else like it
An exciting and innovative work -- as the title suggests, it reaches, much more so than other anthologies I can think of.A neglected field of avant-garde poetry, including mathematekus, illustrated poems, surrealistic poems, funny poems -- and nothing like one expects from poetry. Of course, this reach does not always result in the best work -- sometimes experimentation is only, after all, experimentation.Still, all in all, very interesting. ... Read more

Excerpt: Belle Sorenson Gunness (born as Brynhild Paulsdatter Størseth, November 11, 1859, Selbu, Norway- April 28, 1908? La Porte, Indiana) was an American female serial killer. At 5'8" (173 cm) and over 200 lb (91 kg), she was a physically strong woman. She may have killed both of her husbands and all of her children (on different occasions), but she is known to have killed most of her suitors, boyfriends, and her two daughters, Myrtle and Lucy. Her apparent motives involved collecting life insurance benefits. Reports estimate that she killed more than 40 people over several decades. Gunness' origins, like much of her life story, are shrouded in a web of differing accounts and deliberate inventions. Most of her biographers state that she was born on November 11, 1859 near the lake of Selbu, Sør-Trøndelag, Norway and christened as Brynhild Paulsdatter Størset. Her parents were Paul Pedersen Størset (a stonemason) and Berit Olsdatter. She was the youngest of their eight children. They lived at Størsetgjerdet, a very small cotter's farm in Innbygda, Selbu, 60 km southeast of Trondheim, the largest city in central Norway (Trøndelag). A Norwegian TV documentary by Anne Berit Vestby aired on September 4, 2006 tells a common although unverified story about Gunness' early life. The story holds that, in 1877, Gunness attended a country dance w...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=4059459 ... Read more
