Open Book with Rose McLarney

For this Open Book which is now on two successive Saturday evenings every month, my guest is Rose McLarney whose most recent collection of poems, Colorfast, has just been published.

Rose is an associate professor of creative writing at Auburn University in Alabama. She’s also co-editor-in-chief and poetry editor of The Southern Humanities Review. She grew up in Western North Carolina and many of the poems in this book are reflections on her life growing up in the North Carolina mountains.
