Wright, Charles , 1935-

Appalachia / Charles Wright - 1st ed - New York : Farrar, Straus and Giroux , 1998. - 67 p. ; 22 cm.

Appalachia continues Wright's investigation of the relationships among landscape, language, and the metaphysics of identity. "Nothing's more abstract, more unreal/ than what we actually see," the poet writes, and these meditative lyrics set out to prove the point in words, a "desperate alphabet" no less chimerical than the shifting terrain it strains to articulate.
