It’s Good Weather for Fudge: Conversing with Carson Mc Cullers, Sue Walker imagines a friendship and conversation with Mc Cullers as they share memories of two women growing up in the Deep South, Mc Cullers in Georgia and Walker in Alabama. The past becomes the present in this poem that ranges from love and war to sickness and health, fudge and friendship. Its many allusions to the life and works of Carson Mc Cullers make it a kind of poetic biography.
