The "Alumni Grill" showcases new stories by award-winning Veterans from the first two Blue Moon Café collections hand-picked by editors William Gay and Suzanne Kingsbury. In this stunning anthology of Southern prose and poetry, beloved authors such as Tom Franklin, Suzanne Hudson and Brad Watson take us from the deep South of Alabama, through back-country Mississippi, to the hills of Appalachia. We feel the aftermath of murder, marvel at motherhood, taste sumptuous Southern cooking, stay out all night fishing, and ache from lost love. For fans of the Blue Moon Café series and anyone who loves short fiction, this collection highlights the endlessly rich and varied voices of the South.
