Green

’My mother was an oak tree

my dad a garage mechanic

My father was a field of wheat

my mother the Prime Minister

My mother was an innkeeper

and my father a lonely cactus...’

Suzannah Evans’ new pamphlet introduces us to Green, half human, half angry nature spirit. Green serves as a stunt double for our own rage and complicity in nature’s destruction. He shows us nature’s delights so we may mourn their loss more deeply.
