- Overcoming Appalachian Stereotypes
- From
- With Good Reason
The announcement that CBS plans to create a new reality show called “The Real Beverly Hillbillies” has already generated objections that it would foster more disparaging views of the Appalachian Mountain culture. The show would follow an Appalachian family as they adjust to life as Hollywood millionaires. English professor Parks Lanier is tired of Appalachian stereotypes and says some of this country’s richest literature comes from the mountains. Phil Leonard takes his students on an annual bus tour of Appalachian regions. Also featured: Amy Clark (UVA-Wise) studies how people from Appalachian communities feel about their dialect. She says many try to change their speech when they move out of the area, hiding their true origin.
Broadcast on NPR stations in Virginia and Washington, DC the week of December 6-12, 2003.

- Teresa Goff
Raymond Carver is most famous for his short stories yet the detail in each story is even more condensed when Carver writes in verse. Carver's widow, Tess Gallagher reads "Projectiles", a poem written for Japanese contemporary writer Haruki Murakami. Carver married poet Tess Gallagher shortly before his death in 1988. "Projectiles" was written in the late '80s, after Carver's Japanese translator Haruki Murakami visited Carver and Gallagher is their Port Angeles home.
Haruki Murakami, a writer now known for his novels The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle and Kafka On the Shore, had yet to come to prominence in the States. The meeting between the Carvers and the Murakamis went so well that Haruki and wife Yoko had an extra-large bed installed in their Tokyo apartment for Carver. But Carver never made it to Japan. He died of cancer in 1988. In this reading.
