CANCELLED: Local Author Showcase: LD Green, "Battle of Whatsworse"

Join us for a presentation and Q&A with local author LD Green.

Of the many stories written by LD Green, it is his trilogy of medieval thrillers that showcases his upbringing most vividly. Added to these epic-length stories (each written in a different form of poetry) is Green’s service in the United States Military. This combination of being uprooted without say so, plus the involvement in war brings together the culmination of those who govern versus the ones who must act. This is where LD goes to battle using a barrage of metered sentences that easily spin the reader into these filthy fields and make them take up arms and side with either those that control or the few who fend them off and try to lead themselves far from the fright of what they truly know is wrong.

It is within the first few sentences that a reader becomes hyper-aware that they may not have read anything similar to his works. So, the freshness of his writing helps to curtail the seriousness of the stories. When pressed, Green often says,” My books are more of an adventure ride on a full stomach and that the reader should adjust their posture and proceed with a sense of attention because the structure of these stories adds a realism that can only be explained by fully engaging ...and that takes courage”.

About the author: LD Green is an author and filmmaker. His early years were spent growing up in the projects in America’s winter capital of Buffalo New York. His abrupt departure from this urban area to a rural place in Western, Ma set the stage for his understanding of differences in topography and humanity. Thereby setting the stage for his conflicting and sometimes stark definitive descriptions of language and living while always highlighting the variance in human nature and often clashing cultures.
