A Wild Shining

William Carlos Williams said, "It is difficult to get the news from poems/yet men die miserably every day/for lack/of what is found there." But what if the "news" of the poem is also the "news" of the day? Nancy Dillingham finds life-affirming truths among the turmoil that haunts our headlines from the 1950s to the Uvalde tragedy. -Parks Lanier, Appalachian Georgics and Collected Poems Thank you for . . . the angry, sorrowful, timely, and ironic poems that [say] so much. What so many of us feel. You found the words. -Fred Chappell, Poet Laureate of North Carolina, 1997-2002
