Title: Southbound
Description: "Beginning with an interview with the late literary giant James Dickey, Southbound collects the ideas and insights of both well-known and rising southern poets, including Dave Smith, Charles Wright, Ellen Bryant Voigt, Yusef Komunyakaa, and Rodney Jones. Suarez's guiding principle for conducting and revising the interviews was to let the poets express themselves as clearly and fully as possible.

Each interview is ultimately defined by the poet's own personality and voice, yet all explore similar themes - the relationship between technique and subject, the nature of the southern canon and each poet's place in it, and the state of contemporary poetry."--BOOK JACKET.
