Book description
Planted by the Signs brings us the contemporary Appalachian poetry-cultivated in the dirt of Elliott County, Kentucky-of Misty Skaggs. With an eye for details that exquisitely balance personal and social observation to communicate volumes, she tells the stories of generations of women who have learned to navigate a harsh world with a little help from the Farmers' Almanac and the stars. The collection is separated into three sections that reference the best times to grow and harvest. Knowing and following these guidelines-planting by the signs-could mean the difference between prosperity and tragedy in the lives of Appalachian families.Personal, political, and passionate, Planted by the Signs also explores what it means for Skaggs to care for her great-grandmother at the end of her life. Color photos by the poet further showcase her sidelong and fierce outlook. The images and poems together deliver an intimate look into the day-to-day reality of a backwoods woman embracing barefooted radicalism in the only place she could call home.
