Overview
"This collection comprises nine pieces—six essays and three stories—that represent the best of my creative-writing career at Emerson College. The collection begins and ends with personal essays, the contents of which are echoed or further examined by the fictional works placed between. Central themes I explore include parent-child bonds, the tenuous relationship between mind and body, and notions of independence and partnership. The American South, my place of origin, is the setting for all of these works, and I've attempted to render it as plainly as I see it. Research has helped in this regard." -- Abstract
