{"product_id":"the-bohemian-south-creating-countercultures-from-poe-to-punk-9781469631677","title":"The Bohemian South: Creating Countercultures, from Poe to Punk","description":"From the southern influence on nineteenth-century New York to the musical legacy of late-twentieth-century Athens, Georgia, to the cutting-edge cuisines of twenty-first-century Asheville, North Carolina, the bohemian South has long contested traditional views of the region. Yet, even as the fruits of this creative South have famously been celebrated, exported, and expropriated, the region long was labeled a cultural backwater. This timely and illuminating collection uses bohemia as a novel lens for reconsidering more traditional views of the South. Exploring wide-ranging locales, such as Athens, Austin, Black Mountain College, Knoxville, Memphis, New Orleans, and North Carolina's Research Triangle, each essay challenges popular interpretations of the South, while highlighting important bohemian sub- and countercultures. \u003ci\u003eThe Bohemian South\u003c\/i\u003e provides an important perspective in the New South as an epicenter for progress, innovation, and experimentation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContributors include Scott Barretta, Shawn Chandler Bingham, Jaime Cantrell, Jon Horne Carter, Alex Sayf Cummings, Lindsey A.
