In the pages of 174 Edgewood, poet Bobbie Campbell weaves childhood memories of her large family and larger-than-life parents with hard won realizations about destructive family patterns. Campbell's poems don't shy from the chaotic atmosphere resulting from her parents' alcoholism, but underneath these difficult stories we discover a narrator with keen powers of observation and a startling sense of humor.

Autorenporträt
Barbara (Bobbie) Campbell began her career in New York where she worked for Oxford University Press and The New Yorker, though she doesn't like to admit as a secretary. In 1966, she moved to Charlotte, NC with her husband, where they raised their sons and made a permanent home. A dedicated member of Charlotte's writing community, Campbell served as associate editor of the Red Clay Reader series, editions 4 through 7. She loves to read, travel, take daily walks, sing in a choir, Zoom with her remaining siblings, visit with her sons and their families, laugh with friends and watch films that are dark, dramatic and disturbing. Campbell's poetry has appeared in Rattle, Kakalak; Journey Within; Pinesong; The Southern Poetry Anthology, North Carolina; Poet Lore and others. 174 Edgewood is her first poetry collection.
