The Other Side of Violet

Anthology

 

This is the other side of expectation. This is the other side of memory. This is The Other Side of Violet.

The Other Side of Violet is an exhilarating collection of contemporary poetry and short fiction by established and emerging writers from across the United States and beyond. The anthology also contains interviews with Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Paul Harding and award-winning poet and novelist Tim Z. Hernandez.

"Read The Other Side of Violet to discover seasoned writers and new literary energizers."
