Join us Fri., Aug 12, 12 pm for lunch with John Lane at High Cotton (199 East Bay St.). John will talk and sign copies of his new book, Coyote Settles the South (UGA Press, hb., 200 pp., $30).
Tickets are $31 for three-course lunch and talk or $61 for lunch and book.
Coyote Settles the South is the story of Lane’s journey as he visits coyote territories: swamps, nature preserves, old farm fields, suburbs, a tannery, and even city streets. Along the way, he gains insight concerning the migration into the Southeast of the American coyote, an animal that, in the end, surprises him with its intelligence, resilience, and amazing adaptability.
John Lane teaches environmental studies at Wofford College, where he also directs the Goodall Center for Environmental Studies. In 1995 he co-founded a community press and literary arts organization in Spartanburg called The Hub City Writers Project. His poems have been published in magazines such as The Virginia Quarterly Review, Harvard Magazine, Ironwood, Ploughshares, and Nimrod, among many others.
