How Am I To Be Heard
This compelling volumne offers the first full portrait of the life and work of writer Lillian Smith (1897-1966), the foremost southern white liberal of mid-twentieth century. Smith devoted her life to lifting the veil of southern self-deception about race, class, gender, and sexuality. 145 of Smith's 1,500 extant letters are included. Arranged chronologically and annotated, these letters present a complete picture of Smith as a committed artist and reveal the burden of her struggles as a woman, including her lesbian relationship with Paula Snelling. The author argues that this triple isolation - as woman, lesbian, and artist - from mainsteam southern culture permitted Smith to see and to expose southern prejudices with absolute clarity.
