What critics are saying
"Stephen Hedrick's poetry evokes the Old South and the new with sly humor and the keen insight of a native son. In his verse we see and feel the wraith-like morning mist on a mountain, an undulating sea of kudzu, and the come-hither gaze of a Southern belle. 'Tall Tales & Sonnets of the South' is a paean to a place that exists in our hearts."
Thomas B. Harrison
Arts and Entertainment Editor
