  Describes and discusses the work of southern writers who began their careers in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. They fall into two categories. Some, born into the working class, strove to become writers and learned without benefit of higher education. Others came from lower- or middle-class backgrounds and became writers through practice and education.
