Southern Reading List: Karen Head

Karen Head is executive director of the communication center at
Georgia Institute of Technology. She's also the Waffle House Poet
Laureate . The designation came after a Waffle House
fouondation-funded poetry tour project for under-served Georgia
high school students. Head's newest collection of poem is called
Lost on Purpose. She stopped by On Second Thought to share her
recommendations for the "Southern Reading List." For the series, we
invite authors and readers to talk about books that define and
reflect the South.
