Lewis Nordan

Examines and celebrates the work of southern writer Lewis 'Buddy' Nordan, whose stories reveal his own pain and humanity and in their honesty force us to recognize ourselves within them. Written by scholars and fiction writers who represent a fascinating range of experience this is a rich array of essays, poems, and visual arts in tribute to this increasingly important writer. The collection contextualises his work in relation to other important southern writers such as William Faulkner and Eudora Welty.
