About This Book

The Charlotte area is well known as a business locale, but it's also the center of a dynamic community of writers who are claiming their place on the national literary map.

As the acclaimed Novello Festival of Reading marks its 20th anniversary, it is partnering with Charlotte ViewPoint magazine to showcase innovative fiction, poetry, and essays from the Carolinas and beyond.

Topograph surveys the literary landscape that has emerged in recent decades, exploding tarnished ideas about Southern writing. For anyone interested in the latest trends, this collection offers a broad spectrum of styles, including formally innovative essays, adventurous flash fiction, and minimalist poetry alongside more traditional storytelling and memorable travelogues. It provides a vista of the most exciting work being done in the area, writing that's often informed by geography in unexpected ways.

Topograph's more than 30 contributors include Alan Michael Parker, Frank Lentricchia, Jon Pineda, Melissa Malouf, Madge McKeithan, Blake Butler, Rosa Shand, Sally Keith, Janice Fuller, and Kirsten Hemming.
