Prose and poetry: a mix on Mississippi stage with a W.Va. twist
Stories of things rural and small town….
Urban-edge poems….
Things that don’t normally mix on stage.
Kevin Stewart, Vandalia Press author of the story collection “The Way Things Always Happen Here,” and John Hennessy, poet of “Bridge and Tunnel” from Turning Point Books, appeared on stage in Mississippi earlier this month.
I’m fascinated that Hennessy told clarionledger.com he’s working on some poems about iconic women, including Squeaky Fromme (taking a cue from one of Stewart’s stories).
