"Still Time on Pye Pond stands at the intersection of literature and visual arts. It is the story of a young White woman, my daughter, rejected by her paternal grandfather for marrying a Black man. The memoir is told principally in encaustic paintings, from my point of view as the mother who remains painfully silent to avoid further unraveling tenuous family bonds."--
Since its 1925 publication, Manhattan Transfer has been widely recognized as a landmark in American modernism both for its jaundiced portrayal of the American Dream and for its experimentation with the novel form.

By reasserting the centrality of Paris, this book draws connections between Irish women writers and European writers, forging new points of contact between Irish literature and canonical figures like Goethe, Balzac, and Zola through the shared interest in the socio-economic development of modernity. The European Metropolis not only expands the critical framework in which scholars situate these novels but also expands the map of Irish Studies.
"Clemson has a beautiful campus, which provides environmental stimulus and opportunity for teaching and learning. This field guide reveals those natural and created settings which allow us to individually discover a true sense of place on the Clemson campus; these outdoor rooms are well remembered as a visitor, student, staff or scholar."-James Barker, President Emeritus, Clemson University

The essays in this book variously addressed the "granite" of close textual reading and the "rainbow" of theoretical approaches to Woolf's writings. Several more flexible versions of editing emerge in the papers that discuss adaptations of Woolf to film, theatre, and music. Brenda Silver's contribution in memory of Julia Briggs opens the volume, and James Haule's concludes it.
Woolfian Boundaries aims to explore Woolf's work from perspectives "beyond the boundary" of her own positions and attitudes, taking her coolness toward the provinces and "prejudice" against the regional novel (Letters 6: 381) as the starting-point for considering her writing in the light of its own "limits," self-declared and otherwise. Topics include Woolf's connections with the "Birmingham School" of novelists in the 1930s to her interests in environmentalism, portraiture, photography, and the media, and her endlessly fascinating relationship with the writings of her contemporaries and predecessors.
Founded in 1968, The South Carolina Review is the state's flagship literary journal.

Skip Eisiminger is an academic who still looks forward to Monday mornings, even after thirty-six years of teaching. The collection opens with a secular-humanist essay and closes with a piece that offers speculations about immorality. In between is a wildflower garden of sacred, profane, and always witty efflorescences.
The theme "Voyages Out, Voyages Home," and the idea of voyaging-which can be interpreted in many ways-permeates this collection of essays on Virginia Woolf. An international group of scholars explore topics ranging from Woolf's interest in travel and cross-cultural encounters to her imaginative voyages between texts and genres and even to the subsequent voyages her texts have made into the work of others.
This is a book about a man who may have done more to give the parks their present character than anyone in their history.. . .As Sherwood confesses, there is so much in the large Hartzog arsenal of assets that it is difficult to identify a very few attributes that made him special. However, Sherwood sees Hartzog's desire for further learning and growth as possibly his single greatest asset. While this zest for continued improvement was an important personal incentive, the crucial point is that Hartzog saw it as the means by which he could realize the full potential of his endeavors within the park service.-Lawrence R. Allen, Dean, College of Health, Education and Human Development, Clemson University
This is poetry that goes for the jugular. Allen's poetry is marked by its potent, dynamic syntax, and also by his storyteller's sensibility. Skillfully crafted in their shifting perspectives, there is a great verve and sense of surprise in his lines. He has a fantastic ability to swoop into vivid detail while keeping the poem sweeping onwards. This is tough, sometimes brutal poetry, but still singing, a rich and rough music, just right for our times.-Alan Gillis, poet & editor of the Edinburgh Review
Forget Duck Dynasty and True Detective. Read Bayou Coeur and enter a world as different from the homogeneity of American life as étouffée is different from Campbell's soup. Gray leads us through this unique culture like a skilled cajun accordionist laying down his chords and pursuing a melodic line that evokes nostalgia and mystery and resolves into surprising harmonies. -Bill Dowie, author of critical biographies of Peter Matthiessen and James Salter in the Twayne U.S. Authors Series
Travelers' Rest is a family epic, but it is also an American epic, carrying a message that can also be found in Ben Robertson's other, more famous works, Red Hills and Cotton and I Saw England (his first-hand account of the Battle of Britain). Thoughts of the Republic's founding and American values were very much on Robertson's mind as a journalist covering Washington and Europe as he anticipated the coming of the Second World War.
This book presents the graves of writers from the American South. The selection is based on the authors' popular or critical reputations and the appeal and accessibility of their grave sites. Some may dispute whether these subjects were sufficiently Southern, and whether they were truly writers, but this is certain: they're all dead. The pictures of their graves, presented chronologically, illustrate Southern literary history, and this book memorializes the artists, some famous and some obscure.
On the evening of July 8, 2015, the attendees of the twenty-sixth biannual Ezra Pound International Conference, held in Dorf Tirol, Italy, gathered inside a small library just up the hill from the castle where Pound's daughter, Mary de Rachewiltz, lives with her son and his family. As evening turned to night, conference attendees were treated to a reading featuring poems written and performed by poets influenced by the life and work of Ezra Pound. This volume offers a selection of those poems. Poets include David Cappella, Patrizia de Rachewiltz, Justin Kishbaugh, David Moody, Stephen Romer, J. R. Forman, Eloisa Bressan, Mary de Rachewiltz, Mary Maxwell, Biljana D. Obradovic, Ron Smith, Sean Mark, Matthew Porto, and John Gery
This collection of poetry takes female lives and voices as its point of focus and its point of departure. Each poem looks to a single woman--historical, mythological, or fictional--and paints a portrait in words.
