Mess o' Catfish: Four Working in the Solid South Attempting to Create a Neo-Regionalism of Innovative Writing Below the Bug Line Presentation uri icon

Description

  • Finding ourselves in a solid south of traditional Southern Gothic Fiction and Agrarian Poetry, we are seeking to establish, in content and form, new renderings of Southern American voice and accent and in so doing reinvigorate the exhausted category of "Regional Writing." We will present our work and discuss its connections to the dynamic places that generate it and ways in which such work encourages and documents actual change in the cultural and physical landscape of the Old South.
