Customer Reviews

Electrifying

You know you've read a GREAT book when almost 7 years later, you remember the whole thing and where you were when you read it.Green days is the book, not just for Caribbean born folks ( I am one!) but for any one who have love and lost and loved again. It desires to be bought.

A MUST READ!

The characters were very universal. Even though I am a trinidadian woman and can relate to the story better than most, it is still a book that every one should read. The main character was the type of young man that you just wanted something good to happen for him. He possessed alot of the characteristics of human nature. He wants a young woman, then he doesn't want her then he does again, then you're not sure what he wants. Life is like that. This story is the perfect theme of innocence to experience.

The best Book I have ever read!

I just love Green Days By The River. All my friends at school love the book also we read it in Literature class. and in our end of year we get a Test on this Book and others. I love the book I am only just so sorry that shell could not have married Joan.In english Class I got an assignment to write on wheter Mr.Gidharee was trying to lure Shell into a trap.What do you think if you figure something please e-mail me at nhs@cwjamaica.com please! It is to be brought in tommorrow morning. And tell me your reviews also.

A sizzling tale of forbidden love

A classic West Indian novel, this book is way ahead of its time in its depiction of inter-racial relationships in a rustic country village. This tale puts a new twist on the time old story of star crossed lovers. It will keep you gripped to the climatic finish. This is a realistic novel, which will allow you to experience life in rural Trinidad.

Not for the Unadventurous

I read this book a long time ago while in high school. I had to read it for a book report. This was the first report that I truly enjoyed putting together. I hadn't known that such fine writers existsd in the Caribbean. Green Days by the River made me want to go out and find other books by Michael Anthony. I am fom the Commonwealth of Dominica, which isn't very far from Trinidad. So I know about Caribbean life and I must say that Michael Anthony portrays it very well.
