Evolution is the title of the latest anthology from the Southern Ohio Writers' Collaborative, a theme that has made many of us think long and hard about what that means to each of us.After all, species evolve, as do people. As women we certainly do: we go from little girl to teen, to young woman to wife and mother, to grandmother. Along the way, we may lose interest in some things, but develop new interests later. We fall in and out of love—sometimes we have that love taken from us...

Its protagonist is Reid Hartley, who enjoys an enviable reputation in the profession but lately has been in a severe slump.

This book, first published in '57 as no. 45 in the Traveller's Companion series, is among the toughest works to find. (No. 44 was a little something called The Story of O, a title that initiated yet another French government crackdown on Olympia, perhaps explaining Rainbow's scarcity.) Seeds of the Rainbow is the tale of Sid, a man as gifted in the priapic arts as he is lacking in physical beauty. Not without his charms, he still finds himself behaving aggressively towards the women in his...

Exactly how you react to this book will depend to a considerable extent on how old you are. The younger you are, the more likely you will be to take much of it for granted.

And we are certain that it will be a valuable reading experience for all.
