The Bitter Berry

The Life of Byron Herbert Reece

Plot

Published as a companion to a documentary video on Reece (1917-1958), this little volume more than stands on its own. It introduces the life and work of a North Georgian writer whose remarkably moving poetry draws its images from that region as it draws language and form from the English ballad tradition and the Bible.
