Produktbeschreibung

River Road is a collection of narrative poems in the voice of Susan McFalls, writing from her new home in North Carolina's Blue Ridge Mountains.

Wayne Caldwell, author of Cataloochee, returns to North Carolina's Blue Ridge Mountains to continue the story of Susan McFalls, who is left on Mount Pisgah after the death of her dear friend and neighbor Posey Green. These poems follow Susan as she moves to and renovates an old house on River Road, vividly bringing to life the wild and beautiful land and culture of the Blue Ridge and the cherished memories and new friends that continue to anchor her to this special place.

River Road is a companion to Caldwell's first poetry collection, Woodsmoke, and while the two can stand alone, together they paint a fuller picture of friendship, loss, and the ways in which lives are shaped by the North Carolina mountains.
