"The Southern Foodways Alliance celebrates twenty years of symposia by offering a collection of poems that are by turns as sophisticated and complex, as vivid and funny, and as buoyant and poignant as any SFA gathering. The roster of contributors includes Natasha Trethewey, Robert Morgan, Atsuro Riley, Adrienne Su, Richard Blanco, Ed Madden, Nikky Finney, Frank X Walker, Sheryl St. Germain, Molly McCully Brown, and forty-five more. These poets represent past, current, and future conversations about what it means to be Southern. Throughout the anthology, region is reconciled with race, class, sexuality, and other shaping identities"--

Yes, there is barbecue, but that’s just one course of the meal. With Vinegar and Char the Southern Foodways Alliance celebrates twenty years of symposia by offering a collection of poems that are by turns as sophisticated and complex, as vivid and funny, and as buoyant and poignant as any SFA gathering.

The roster of contributors includes Natasha Trethewey, Robert Morgan, Atsuro Riley, Adrienne Su, Richard Blanco, Ed Madden, Nikky Finney, Frank X Walker, Sheryl St. Germain, Molly McCully Brown, and forty-five more. These poets represent past, current, and future conversations about what it means to be southern. Throughout the anthology, region is layered with race, class, sexuality, and other shaping identities.

With an introduction by Sandra Beasley, a thought-provoking foreword by W. Ralph Eubanks, and luminous original artwork by Julie Sola, this collection is an ideal gift. Meant to be savored slowly or devoured at once, these pages are a perfect way to spend the hour before supper, with a glass of iced tea—or the hour after, with a pour of bourbon—and a fitting celebration of the SFA’s focus and community.

Recenzijas

Some say opposable thumbs are what make humans people; some say its the use of tools; some say its that we cook our food; and some say that its the fact that we use words. I dont know much about evolutionary biology and thumbs, but I can tell you that this collection of words about food is also a collection of toolsof useful things for making meaning of our lives and the world and the places we call home. Its full of what people need. -- Francis Lam * host of The Splendid Table, produced by American Public Media, former Eat columnist for the New York Times Magazine, and editor-at-large at Clarkson Potter * Vinegar and Char is full of inspiring southern verse that envelops both the nostalgia and the evolution of our food landscape with reverence and candor. Take editor Sandra Beasley's heed to heart: 'Please don't keep this book on a high shelf waiting for the day you can read it in full. Instead stash it in your kitchen.' I plan to do just this, for moments of inspiration near the stove or by the chopping board. It is a wonderfully diverse collection of well-considered words shooting straight from the hearts and minds of some of the most talented poets and writers of our time. -- Steven Satterfield, owner Miller Union restaurant
