SUMMARY:Tina Mozelle Braziel and James Braziel present GLASS CABIN
DESCRIPTION:Join Thank You Books for an afternoon with husband-and-wife authors and UAB professors Tina Mozelle Braziel and James Braziel\, and to celebrate their fascinating new book of poetry. \n“GLASS CABIN chronicles the thirteen years Tina and James spent building their home out of second-hand tin\, tornado-snapped power poles\, and church glass on a waterless ridge in rural Alabama. Their alternating voices support one another like parts of their cabin—every board needs its nail\, every window needs its frame. These poems explore the work it takes to measure cuts for stairs\, to haul water—one ton at a time—up the side of the mountain\, and to write. It is also a meditation on hope\, on frustration\, and their place in the wilder parts of the world.” \nThe event is free but registration is encouraged:  please register here \nJames and Tina Mozelle Braziel are a husband-and-wife writing team. They have received fellowships from Hot Springs National Park and Alabama State Council on the Arts. James’s book\, This Ditch-Walking Love\, winner of the Tartt Fiction Award\, tells the stories of people living on Alabama’s Cumberland Plateau. His novels Birmingham\, 35 Miles (Bantam) and Snakeskin Road (Bantam) are about the survivors of an environmental disaster in the future South. James\, an associate professor\, teaches creative writing at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Tina Mozelle Braziel is the author of Known by Salt (Anhinga)\, winner of the Philip Levine Prize for Poetry\, and Rooted by Thirst (Porkbelly). Her work has appeared in POETRY and other journals. Tina directs the Ada Long Creative Writing Workshop for high school students at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. James and Tina live and write in a glass cabin that they are building by hand on Hydrangea Ridge.
