Summary: A Poetic Harvest
Comment: Kathryn Byer's first book of poetry was published in the Associated Writing Program's Award Series, selected by John Frederick Nims, who has an excellent introductory statement on the dust jacket. Nims praises the robust and affirmative singing and story-telling in this collection, and he is right on target with his comments. The Girl In the Midst of the Harvest is a book about growing up in the flatlands of the South, coming of age in the mountains of North Carolina. The poems are by turns rollicking and controlled. The middle section explores the mythology of family history in a sequence titled "Search Party." One of the best books of poetry to come out of the South in the last 20 years, or so I believe.
