Possum and Other Receipts for the Recovery of Southern Being

Beschreibung

In this volume, Marion Montgomery ponders two very different varieties of possum as the starting point for a literary, philosophical, and poetic inquiry into the nature of Southernness: the familiar marsupial and the first-person singular present of the Latin verb posse; rendered as "I am able."
