Understory Vol. 1 + Vol. 2 Anthology Bundle
Both volumes of Understory, Loblolly Press's ongoing anthology of Southern writing, together in one bundle — $6 off the cover prices.
Volume 1: A Full-Color Anthology for Hurricane Helene Recovery. In September 2024, Hurricane Helene tore through Western North Carolina. Understory gathers 87 writers, poets, and artists — most of them from the mountains the storm hit — into a full-color, 189-page anthology of the work made in its wake. $1 from every print copy goes to Swannanoa Communities Together, which provides housing support, food access, and case management to families still recovering in the valley.
Volume 2: An Anthology from the American South. The second installment in the series widens the call, gathering poetry and prose from writers across the American South, chosen through an open submission period — work resilient and surprising enough to make us re-see, in some way, how the American South is perceived.
Includes one print copy of each volume.
