Book Description
Excerpt from Year Book of the Poetry Society of South Carolina for 1921 Practically untouched by art, and within the memory of living men, the South has passed through three great phases replete with poetic material, first, the colorful, romantic days before the war, then the tragedies, the sacrifices, and the lifting courage of our rebirth, and now the surgent vital days of our own time, with their strong realism standing out in bas relief against a background of unbelievable color, charm and romance. These things are going to be, must be, expressed, and their underlying ideals interpreted by our own people; but unfortunately, there is little or no opportunity of publication for poetry dealing with Southern themes, especially from the pen of a beginner. The publishers state very definitely what they want, and for what they will pay; and as they are, almost without exception, situated in New York, New England or the Middle West, they are naturally often out of sympathy with and incapable of understanding our' needs and aims.

Book Description
This book chronicles the first 100 years of the history of the oldest state poetry society in America, the Poetry Society of South Carolina, founded in Charleston in 1920 by DuBose Heyward, John Bennett, Josephine Pinckney, Hervey Allen, and Laura Bragg. It covers every one of the 101 seasons of the PSSC from the Jazz Age to the COVID era, where everyone from Carl Sandburg, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Robert Frost, Robert Penn Warren, Allen Tate, Ogden Nash, Billy Collins, Sherwood Anderson, Jericho Brown, Thornton Wilder, Robert Pinsky, and hundreds of others appeared before the membership. This is an insider's view, with insights into the inner workings and disfunctions of the organization and its slow progress from a Whites-only organization of the segregated South founded in the aftermath of World War I and the Spanish Flu Pandemic, through the Roaring Twenties, into the darkness of the Great Depression, World War II, a resurgence during the Atomic Age, the turbulent Sixties, the decline of Charleston, its rebound into a tourist mecca, and into the present day. Written as a page-turner, not an encyclopedia, The History of the Poetry Society of South Carolina is a fascinating read from beginning to end. It's loaded with useless trivia, salacious gossip, morbidity, humor, scandal, heartbreak, intrigue, embezzlement, drama, backstabbing, and irony.
