This Issue This issue _ george Brosi We are proud to feature in this magazine Mark Powell, a young writer still in his thirties. Our Mark Powell section starts with an excerpt from his third novel, The Dark Corner, forthcoming in 2012 from the University of Tennessee Press. Casey Clabough, one of our region's most distinguished literary critics, is uniquely qualified to assess Powell's work. The anecdotal essays on Mark Powell, by Ron Rash, Pete Duval, and Denton Loving, give our readers a wonderful context from which to view his contribution. The featured photographer for this issue is Larry D. Thacker. He has written on a variety of subjects, including paranormal topics, and this display of his photography is enough to convince us that he does have "the sight" at least through the camera lens. I was saddened by the death of Carl Oglesby, a writer I worked closely with in the 1960s, but am gratified that his children and their mother have allowed us to publish his delightful essay on visiting his kinfolks back in the South Carolina foothills and provided me with fascinating background information on Oglesby's family. Lee Maynard was our featured author for last summer's issue, and his story, "Snow in the Heart" was out-of-season then, but perfect for this winter issue. Our book reviews come from wonderfully well-qualified readers. Dennis McCarthy is an editor with the reputation as one of Knoxville's most accomplished purveyors of ecological wisdom. We will miss him as a neighbor but understand his wish to retire in New Mexico near his brother, Cormac. Wayne Caldwell is a close friend of Charles Frazier, and we are happy he was willing to review Frazier's third novel. Poets in this issue hail from West Virginia, Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ohio. Charles Wright and bell hooks need no introduction to American audiences, and we welcome back glenis Redmond and Jeanne Bryner. We are proud to be one of the first magazines to publish Carol grametbauer. Elizabeth Savage, though previously well published, is also appearing in these pages for the first time. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Appalachian Review University of North Carolina Press
