27 Views of Wilmington: The Port City in Prose & Poetry

27 Views of Wilmington is a captivating collection of essays, poetry, and stories that showcase the literary life of one of North Carolina's most popular cities.

With contributions from 27 talented authors and poets, this anthology offers a broad and varied picture of Wilmington - from its natural beauty to its rich history, cultural diversity, and efforts to come to terms with its past racial violence.

The introduction is written by national best-selling humorist Celia Rivenbark, who captures the essence of Wilmington's charm in her opening lines: "At the end of the day, when the sun sets on the river or salt marsh attain a shade of pink-gold that only filmmakers whose Kickstarter campaigns have done very well seem to get just right, Wilmington's charm lies in its oddball blend of old and new, rural and urban, chic and casual." This anthology is the eighth and final book in Eno Publishers' popular "27 Views" local literary series, which has also published editions for Charlotte, Chapel Hill, Durham, Hillsborough, Asheville, Raleigh, and Greensboro.

With its diverse range of voices and perspectives, 27 Views of Wilmington is a must-read for anyone who loves literature, history, or the unique charm of this vibrant city.
