Resting Among Us (Syracuse University Press, 2023) uncovers the region’s rich literary heritage through Steven Huff’s journeys to the graves of writers, both celebrated and forgotten. Interwoven with these remarkable literary lives are the connected stories of the region’s history and Huff’s own encounters and friendships with some of the writers included in the book. With directions to each author’s grave, as well as photographs of the graves and authors themselves, Resting Among Us is an ideal companion for an enlightening literary pilgrimage.
Steven Huff is the author of several collections of poetry and stories, including More Daring Escapes (Red Hen Press, 2007), A Fire in the Hill (Blue Horse Press, 2017), and A Pig in Paris (Big Pencil Press, 2009). He is the former founding publisher and managing editor of BOA Editions and a current founding member of Tiger Bark Press.
