Frames of Southern Mind: "Reflections on the Stoic, Bi-Racial & Existential South"

The literature of the American South has for the last sixty some years argued about its revered stoic heritage, lingered on the region's bi-racial identity, and eventually dealt openly with existential questions.

Frames of Southern Minds has chapters on Allen Tate, K.A. Porter, Madison Jones, Flannery O'Connor, Walker Percy, Ralph Ellison, Eudora Welty, Josephine Humphreys as well as an interview with Martin Luther King, Sr., and a correspondence with Walker Percy.
