Editorial Reviews
Review
Pfefferle journeys deep into the American heartland to ...record the . . . songs of and photograph poets in their habitat. -- David Citino, poet laureate of Ohio State University
These interviews . . . exhibit the profound richness and dazzling diversity of American poetry and its poets. -- David St. John
Product Description
Out to see America and satisfy his travel bug, W. T. Pfefferle resigned from his position as director of the writing program at Johns Hopkins University and hit the road to interview sixty-two poets about the significance of place in their work. The lively conversations that resulted may surprise with the potential meanings of a seemingly simple concept. This gathering of voices and ideas is illustrated with photo and word portraits from the road and represented with suitable poems.
