Chinaberries and Crows
Writers share their perspectives of life in the South through poetry, memoir and fiction. Most of the contributors have a connection to East Alabama, and especially to the Auburn, Alabama area. Included are reprints of work by Madison Jones, Oxford Stroud, Olivia Solomon and Anne Carroll George, all of whom made a lasting contribution to the literary world, but the reader will also be introduced to some new or lesser known voices whose work is being first published in this anthology. Chinaberries & Crows is the inaugural publication of the non-profit press Solomon & George Publishers.

Chinaberries and Beyond
Patricia is born during WWII when racial segregation is a way of life, particularly in the south. A few years earlier in the small cotton mill town her father’s poor judgment forces her parents and eventually their eight children to live in a crude, unpainted, three-room dwelling located in an isolated area of four houses for African Americans. They have no electricity or running water, and a stone-covered spring in the woods becomes a special place for mischief. A single tree, a chinaberry, adjacent to the house serves many purposes. Home, church, and school are the Littletons’ family core, while their experiences are laced with fun, humor, and mischief. However, when temperamental Hazel, an adult bully, moves next door, there are conflicts, which escalate into unnerving, dangerous situations, especially with Patricia’s easygoing, soft-spoken mother. Hazel ridicules Patricia, who is smart, timid, and labeled a crybaby and stubborn in school. By high school, Patricia blossoms and becomes popular, but later her father warns her of wooden nickels. www.chinaberriesandbeyond.com
