Of This River
Author: Noah Davis
Publisher: MSU Press
ISBN: 1628954094
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 97
Book Description
In a stunning and visceral debut, Noah Davis ushers in a new era of poems from the Alleghenyregion of Appalachia. In chronicling the river valley’s human and more-than-human worlds through acts of modern myth making, Davis expands the scope of contemporary American poetry. This soulful meditation on a neglected region of America reveals a legacy of lingering violence to land and animal alike. In striking stories and scenes, Davis portrays the spiritual cost of deep poverty, the necessity to ask for forgiveness, and the joy in praising the beauty still found in the steep hollows. These poems will cling to you like water on the soles of your boots.

The Accidental College Student

Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
This narrative study began as a retrospective of an in-depth interview study with a young woman who navigated the move from a large, suburban school system in the mid- Atlantic region before the fifth grade to a small, isolated rural school in Southern Appalachia in the 1990s. She graduated from the only high school serving the county in which she lived. Over the course of two formal interviews, hundreds of informal conversations for more than ten years, and particularly through writing this analysis (Goodall, 2000), I realized that even though there were vast differences between our ages, cultural backgrounds, and current lives, we walked in tandem through similar experiences along the convoluted path to college; even if at different times and locations. The purpose of this thesis is to represent both my production of her story and mine in order to share the experiences of two female first-generation non-traditional college students (page 71).
