An Annual of Poetry, Story, Art, and Criticism
Edited by Marcus Cafagña and Joel Chaston
Photography by Bruce West
The 2011 volume in the MCR book series focuses on
alumni in the broadest sense of the word. Some of the best
writers and artists in and from the Ozarks are featured, along
with a generous mix of Missouri State students and faculty.
Readers from the Ozarks may recognize some old friends, and
other readers will get a better idea about “where we’re
from.” Authors include former Missouri Poet Laureate
Walter Bargen, Michael Burns, Kerry James Evans, Brian Shawver,
Roland Sodowsky, Alexandra Teague, Laura Lee Washburn, and
National Poet Laureate Ted Kooser, who offers a poem and an
exclusive interview.
