Tennessee Williams and His Contemporaries
Tennessee Williams and His Contemporaries compiles eight transcribed panels that were featured at The Tennessee Williams Scholarsâ (TM) Conference, an annual event held each March in conjunction with the Tennessee Williams/New Orleans Literary Festival. This study, the first of its kind, explores issues involving Williamsâ (TM)s drama, fiction, poetry, and films in a discursive format designed to probe and debate the legacy of Americaâ (TM)s famous playwright. Virtually all aspects of Williamsâ (TM)s long career are covered in this volume, including the early and late plays, his unpublished work, his use of the grotesque, and his relationships with three of his contemporaries: Carson McCullers, Lillian Hellman, and William Inge. In addition, Williams scholars who teach his work discuss the most effective strategies for bringing his material into the classroom. The unique design of this volume offers a broad understanding of his material for students previously unacquainted with Tennessee Williams as well as fresh perspectives from recognized experts in the field that will satisfy those who are already familiar with his life and work.

I Have Not Been Able to Get Through to Everyone
"A trailblazing work."--Lewis Warsh "An auspicious debut. . . . Stripped of artifice and the mere effects of formal pyrotechnics, these poems move by ear and intellect, pushing and pulling at the real with precision and mystery."--Ammiel Alcalay "Poetry reinvents itself in Plato's cave, where nothing can be seen but the mind's agile resources climbing the walls of our present, real world. Perplexed at the moment of certainty, estranged at the moment of intimacy, these poems illuminate, amuse, and provoke. Plato would have loved them."--Ann Lauterbach
