Green An Eclectic Anthology of Poetry Prose Silver Birch Press Anthologies Book 2 edition by Silver Birch Press Melanie Villines Literature Fiction eBooks
The editors have brought together authors from all over world to display their talents in poetry, short stories, novel snippets and interviews. Their subject is anything green: word meanings, nature, environment, seasons, food, money, emotions, and much more. Some of the material comes from well known authors like L. Frank Baum, Kurt Vonnegut, James Joyce and William Blake. Other selections are chosen from contemporary or lesser known writers. In keeping with the theme, the editors chose to dedicate the anthology to Graham Greene. I found the cover art appropriate; it features a four leaf clover which is a plant that not only is a symbol of good luck but one that enriches the soil.It is difficult to know where to start in this anthology. The reader need not read the book in chronological order. One might want to select a passage depending on one’s mood or the genre one feels like reading at the time. Editors provide a Table of Contents listing the works by author as well as by Section. The contents by Section are organized by themes. For example, selections are devoted to money, family, environment, envy, and new life. These readings might relate to everyday objects like avocados, lifesavers or green corn tamales. Some touch on places like beaches, subways, and Chicago. There are tales of past and present. Emotions run the gamut from hope to despair. The length of entries range from one to several pages. This book can be picked up for a five minute or a fifty minute read. One of my favorites is “What Can I Do” by Ivon Prefontaine. Here are a few lines:
Change begins in me.
I am a catalyst
I look inside:
Call forth a gentle spirit-
Give it voice.
The reading level of the passages vary in difficulty. Again, the reader might want to devote extra thought to some of the more esoteric passages. In general, I would say that the book could be enjoyed by anyone age twelve and older. It certainly would be an asset to the libraries of upper middle grade and high school classrooms. The reader might also use this edition as an introduction to further exploration of other works by authors she enjoyed in this anthology.

Green An Eclectic Anthology of Poetry Prose Silver Birch Press Anthologies Book 2 edition by Silver Birch Press Melanie Villines Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
A lovely collection of poetry, short story and prose. With a diverse variety of contributors, including myself. I'm bias, but it's a good book.
This book is really awesome. I look forward to my next school break so I can finish reading it all.
A formidable literary accomplishment. Filled with wonderful flights of exquisite verse and prose. A collection of gems. Get it. Enjoy it. Share it.
The recently launched series of thematic but eclectic anthologies from Silver Birch Press combines with its beautiful and formidable website and the daily blog by SBP's editor and publisher, Melanie Villines,to establish the importance of this Los Angeles-based but already internationally read vehicle of creative energies. The Spring Issue, exploring the variety of works inspired by the word/concept Green continues the
exceptional diversity and quality of Winter's inaugural Silver volume. What's more, the price of this confederation of talented voices is ridiculously low ten dollars. Truth in advertising three poems of mine are included, but, as with the previous volume, I am only too honored to find my work among such illustrious occupants of the worlds or art and literature. To cite any fewer than entire roster would do a disservice to any unmentioned, so I'll leave the potential reader to explore its table of contents. What's undeniable is that within less than year Silver Birch has established itself as an influential force in print as well as online. I'm already submitting work for consideration for the third anthology, a tribute to Summer in all its implications.
