Poetry, History...& Love! A reading and conversation with Lynnell Edwards

“One of poetry’s oldest purposes is to tell the story of the tribe. The story of the struggle for 18th century Kentucky is one of violence and sacrifice. Lynnell Edwards skillfully layers incidents from this turbulent past upon her own childhood’s “summer days snug / and certain in the great green valley” that was once a place of so much hardship. This Great Green Valley is a fine chapter in that story.


—Joe Survant, former Kentucky Poetry Laureate

Author, scholar, and translator H. L. Hix, discussing his groundbreaking new translation and compilation of THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO H. L. HIX.

“I have been waiting all my life for someone like H. L. Hix to bring together the various gospels, canonical or not, into a singular account of the life and teachings of Jesus. What is this strange and wonderous book before us—newly translated, compiled, and composed for the first time as a single text, as new telling—if not good news?”

—Eric Pankey, author of Apocrypha and Dismantling the Angel
