The Southern Review mourns the loss of contributor and friend Stephen Dunn, who died on June 24, his 82 birthday. Stephen was the recipient of numerous awards, including a Pulitzer Prize. In addition to being a frequent contributor, he participated in The Southern Review’s 80th anniversary reading at the Strand in New York City, hosted by the Writers Studio. Here are two of his poems from our pages, including “The Revolt of the Turtles,” which won a Pushcart. We will miss his voice.
