In 1997, ten years after my father’s death, Pat Conroy gave a wonderful speech at the University of South Carolina reminiscing about his experiences as a student of James Dickey. This is one page from Pat’s hand-written text in which he talks about how much my father reminded him, at first, of his father, “The Great Santini.” But Pat loved my father’s writing, and his teaching, even more than he hated his own father’s brutality. — Christopher Dickey

LIFE profile of James Dickey in 1966. (In fact he was a WWII aviator - a navigator and weapons officer - not a pilot.)
Délivrance: The handsome new French edition of Deliverance by James Dickey just arrived in the mail from Éditions Gallmeister.
I am happy to report that the Amazon.com James Dickey page is shaping up nicely. Both "The Complete Poems" and "Death, and the Day's Light" are now displayed prominently.
The biography is an abbreviated version of one on the site of The Poetry Foundation and emphasizes the poetry over the novels. There is a blog feed and a Twitter feed, and there will be several photographs, changed frequently.
Suggestions welcome, but in the meantime please spread the word on Tumblr, Twitter, FB, etc.!
Also, interesting to note the Amazon page already is number two when you search James Dickey on Google (without quotes), right after the Wikipedia entry. (For some reason when the name is in quotes it's not coming up on the first page of the search. Go figure.)

Thank you, Trevor Irvin, for digging this great 1980 sketch of James Dickey out of your attic, and for telling us the story of how Patsy Dickey got a copy of it for Jim.
THE NEW YORKER: "Starting with a premise that sounds almost impossible to capture convincingly onstage—this production, directed by Joe Tantalo, compounds the challenge by allowing virtually no set or props. It succeeds with astonishing virtuosity, evoking every twist in the river and the plot...
William Styron and James Dickey at the University of South Carolina in 1974. From an article by David Havird in “The Gamecock" campus newspaper.
I am looking forward to seeing this, a new, dramatic vision of my father’s classic novel.
"The beginning of your true encounter with poetry should be simple. It should bypass all classrooms, all textbooks, courses, examinations and libraries and go straight to the things that make your own existence exist: to your body and nerves and blood and muscles. Find you own way — a secret way that just maybe you don’t know yet — to open yourself as wide as you can and as deep as you can to the moment, the now of your own existence and the endless mystery of it, and perhaps at the same time to one other thing that is not you, but is out there: a handful of gravel is a good place to start. So is an ice cube — what more mysterious and beautiful interior of something has there ever been?"
-- James Dickey, quoted on Brain Pickings, from an essay in How to Use the Power of the Printed Word

James Dickey claimed: 'What I want to do most as a poet is to charge the world with vitality.' … This definitive edition proves that he succeeded.
From the Times Literary Supplement (London) review of "The Complete Poems of James Dickey," edited by Ward Briggs, 25 October 2013.
Links to some the poems Christopher Dickey, Ward Briggs and Ron Rash read at the Southern Festival of Books:
Cherrylog Road
The Lifeguard
The Heaven of Animals
Encounter in the Cage Country
At Darien Bridge
Them, Crying
For the Last Wolverine
But these and the other poems we read (“The Leap,” a passage from “The Firebombing,” “The Confederate Line at Ogeechee Creek,” and more), are best read on the page in this magnificent book edited by Ward and produced to the highest standards of publishing by the University of South Carolina Press. It’s expensive, but it’s forever.
