Over a fifty-year career, Eleanor Ross Taylor has established herself as one of the foremost southern poets of her generation. Captive Voices gathers selections from her five previous books along with a generous helping of new poems, to present poems ranging from contemporary pieces about a bag lady on a bus, to intensely personal poems about her dislike for her grandmother and worries about her son.
