“Some of it is true.”
Before her death, Anne George published close to 100 poems, was an Alabama State Poet, a Writer-in-Residence for the Alabama State Council on the Arts, had one book of poetry selected “Book of the Year” by the Alabama State Poetry Society, and another nominated for a Pulitzer.
And although many Anne George Fans know her for those trouble-making Sisters, Anne’s poetry is not to be overlooked—or overshadowed.
“Anne Carroll George, one of the South's best-loved writers, has always been a poet at heart. During her career, she shares with us the magic of the places she has been, the things she as done, and the people she has loved. Her style is simple and unpretentious—the touch of a master.”
