New from Hub City: Best of the Kudzu Telegraph
DSC_1067.JPG

If you weren't with us on Sept. 8 you missed a great evening when we kicked off John Lane's Best of the Kudzu Telegraph tour with a packed house for his reading in the Showroom. John will be making many appearances over the next few months, but if you can't catch him in person, you can purchase his new book here. These four dozen short essays, originall published by Community Journals in upstate South Carolina, will make you look more closely at the world around you and also, Lane hopes, will make you look ahead: to take actions, large and small, to protect the place you live.

John Lane, an English and environmental studies professor at Wofford College, is the author of eleven books of poetry and prose, including Circling Home (UGA Press, 2007).
