Articles liés à Appalachian Roots: Poems of Land, Lineage, and Legacy
Synopsis
I was born just shy of a Civil War battlefield and grew up barefoot on a small farm in southeastern Tennessee. That is the credential that matters here.
During the Hawaiian missile scare of 2018, with what I believed were minutes left, I did not think about my degrees or my list of things not yet done. I thought about faces. The people who had loved me and whom I had loved. The places that had shaped me before I was old enough to know I was being shaped. And I knew, with a steadiness that surprised me, whose face I would see next.
This collection came from that reckoning.
Appalachian Roots moves through four sections — The Land Speaks, What Is Inherited, Becoming, Returning Home — and does what memory does: it reaches back past itself, into ancestors never met but somehow known, into family, into the people who chose to stay and the ones who chose to show up. One voice carries these poems. Many lives move through it.
Some of these poems are serious. Some are not. Wordsworth called poetry emotion recollected in tranquility. That's close. I'd say it's the heart bled out onto the page — held out to a stranger in the hope that somewhere in it, they find themselves.
Each of us is unrepeatable, all the way down to our gut flora. The world is in want of good stories. I hope this one earns a place in yours.

Appalachian Roots (Paperback)

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : new. Hopson, D. B. (illustrateur). Paperback. A poet born in the shadow of a Civil War battlefield and raised barefoot on a small farm in southeastern Tennessee turns her attention to the country that made her - its ridge roads and inherited silences, its seasons and its labor, its dead and its living, its blood kin and chosen family alike.Appalachian Roots: Poems of Mountain, Memory, and Home moves through four sections - The Land Speaks, What Is Inherited, Becoming, Returning Home - and does what memory does: it reaches back past itself. Into the ancestors never met but were somehow known, and into the land itself.These are not poems of nostalgia. The voices that move through this collection are many, though the hand that holds them is one: precise, restrained, and shaped by a literary inheritance that runs from the Romantic tradition through the American regionalists, from Wordsworth's faith in natural observation to Frost's darkness beneath the pastoral.The poems attend to ordinary things: the labor of hands, the faithfulness of seasons, the particular silence between people who love each other without ceremony. Rooted in the literary tradition of American regional poetry and written with the formal precision of a poet trained in both classical inheritance and the textures of physical labor, Appalachian Roots offers what the best place-based poetry always has - the particular rendered large enough to hold the universal.For readers of Appalachian literature, Southern poetry, and the literature of home, memory, and belonging. Moving through the echoes of ancestry and the rhythms of the earth, this collection explores the profound connection between a landscape and the souls shaped by its labor and silence.
