内容简介

The Hub City Writers Project introduces new places and new voices in this collection of creative nonfiction set in and around the city of Spartanburg, South Carolina. From a window seat on a city bus to the hard pews of a country church, from a loading dock to a horse farm, these writers explore their relationships to the community that either gave birth to or nourished their art.Writing with humor, passion, and self-revelation, fourteen new Hub City writers take readers on a rambling tour of their hometown: a college campus at 3 a.m., a mill village in the grip of economic change, a junior high school confronting integration, a mortuary, an old-time barbershop, a retirement home, and a depot diner. Emerging from their essays is a greater story about the complexities of community life.Anthology 2 is a return to the original formula for the Hub City Writers Project, which began publishing in 1996 with a similar collection of nonfiction stories, art and photography. This book, Hub City's tenth title, is a celebration of the literary organization's staying power and its commitment to a continuing conversation with Spartanburg.
