Items related to Josephine
Every cat deserves a collection of poems written in her honor, but few are fortunate enough to have so eloquent a laureate as Laurence Avery. Josephine's self-described "attendant" chronicles with wit and warmth the details of her life in both indoor and outdoor worlds. Avery sets the tone from the very first line of the opening poem: "She's in the class of things I dote on..." then reveals in the final poem how Josephine acquired her regal name. Patricia Lockwood Davis' beautiful illustrations pair perfectly with the verse to reflect the many sides of Josephine's personality.
Josephine is Avery's second collection of poetry.

Hugh Holman Award for distinguished contributions to the study of Southern literature. Avery also published the definitive edition of Paul Green's play, The Lost Colony. In 2006 Dr. Avery received the North Carolina Literary and Historical Association's R. Hunt Parker Award for significant contributions to North Carolina literature. In 2013, Avery published his first book of poems, Mountain Gravity .The poems in this collection, accessible and erudite at once, touch the reader with historical stories of American Indians who lived in the North Carolina mountains, of contemporary Southern families maturing in a fast paced world, and of Carolina flora and fauna, beloved by Avery, adapting to changing habitats in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
