From the early 20th century to the present, Southern literary
talent has flourished. The newer poets, dramatists, essayists, and
novelists of this region often use their writings to explore the
changing social values of the South, while also drawing upon
traditional Southern values and culture. This reference work is a
guide to the writings of 50 contemporary Southern poets,
dramatists, essayists, and novelists. Many of the authors profiled
in this volume have established themselves as writers of lasting
significance. However, the book also profiles the careers and work
of authors who are emerging only now as masters of their art. Each
chapter in this book is devoted to a single author, and arranged
alphabetically for the reader's convenience. Each is written by an
expert on the author, and includes a biographical sketch, a
discussion of major themes, a survey of criticism, and a
bibliography of works by and about the author. An introductory
essay overviews modern Southern writing, and a selected, general
bibliography concludes the work.
