Vinegar and Char : Verse from the Southern Foodways Alliance Paperback / softback
Edited by Sandra Beasley
Illustrated by Julie Sola
Paperback / softback
Description
Yes, there is barbecue, but that’s just one course of the meal.
With Vinegar and Char the Southern Foodways Alliance celebrates twenty years of symposia by offering a collection of poems that are by turns as sophisticated and complex, as vivid and funny, and as buoyant and poignant as any SFA gathering. The roster of contributors includes Natasha Trethewey, Robert Morgan, Atsuro Riley, Adrienne Su, Richard Blanco, Ed Madden, Nikky Finney, Frank X Walker, Sheryl St.
Germain, Molly McCully Brown, and forty-five more. These poets represent past, current, and future conversations about what it means to be southern.
Throughout the anthology, region is layered with race, class, sexuality, and other shaping identities. With an introduction by Sandra Beasley, a thought-provoking foreword by W.
Ralph Eubanks, and luminous original artwork by Julie Sola, this collection is an ideal gift.
Meant to be savored slowly or devoured at once, these pages are a perfect way to spend the hour before supper, with a glass of iced tea?or the hour after, with a pour of bourbon?and a fitting celebration of the SFA’s focus and community.
