Reviews
Some say opposable thumbs are what make humans people ; some say it's the use of tools; some say it's that we cook our food; and some say that it's the fact that we use words. I don't know much about evolutionary biology and thumbs, but I can tell you that this collection of words about food is also a collection of tools--of useful things for making meaning of our lives and the world and the places we call home. It's full of what people need., Vinegar and Char is full of inspiring southern verse that envelops both the nostalgia and the evolution of our food landscape with reverence and candor. Take editor Sandra Beasley's heed to heart: 'Please don't keep this book on a high shelf waiting for the day you can read it in full. Instead stash it in your kitchen.' I plan to do just this, for moments of inspiration near the stove or by the chopping board. It is a wonderfully diverse collection of well-considered words shooting straight from the hearts and minds of some of the most talented poets and writers of our time., Some say opposable thumbs are what make humans people ; some say it's the use of tools; some say it's that we cook our food; and some say that it's the fact that we use words. I don't know much about evolutionary biology and thumbs, but I can tell you that this collection of words about food is also a collection of tools-of useful things for making meaning of our lives and the world and the places we call home. It's full of what people need.

Synopsis
Yes, there is barbecue, but that's just one course of the meal. With Vinegar and Char the Southern Foodways Alliance celebrates twenty years of symposia by offering a collection of poems that are by turns as sophisticated and complex, as vivid and funny, and as buoyant and poignant as any SFA gathering., Yes, there is barbecue, but that's just one course of the meal. With Vinegar and Char the Southern Foodways Alliance celebrates twenty years of symposia by offering a collection of poems that are by turns as sophisticated and complex, as vivid and funny, and as buoyant and poignant as any SFA gathering. The roster of contributors includes Natasha Trethewey, Robert Morgan, Atsuro Riley, Adrienne Su, Richard Blanco, Ed Madden, Nikky Finney, Frank X Walker, Sheryl St. Germain, Molly McCully Brown, and forty-five more. These poets represent past, current, and future conversations about what it means to be southern. Throughout the anthology, region is layered with race, class, sexuality, and other shaping identities. With an introduction by Sandra Beasley, a thought-provoking foreword by W. Ralph Eubanks, and luminous original artwork by Julie Sola, this collection is an ideal gift. Meant to be savored slowly or devoured at once, these pages are a perfect way to spend the hour before supper, with a glass of iced tea--or the hour after, with a pour of bourbon--and a fitting celebration of the SFA's focus and community.
