Get Fresh Books Publishing
Get Fresh Books Publishing is a non-profit, cooperative press devoted to amplifying diverse voices in poetry and making the publication process accessible to marginalized communities. Our primary objective is to provide opportunities for underrepresented voices by eliminating economic and societal barriers, such as submission fees and contests, which may inhibit marginalized voices from contributing to the literary conversation. As a cooperative press, we encourage manuscript submissions from BIPOC, LGBTQ+, people with disabilities and people living with mental illnesses. By doing so, we explicitly reject any “ism” or phobia which seeks to suppress the voices of those who receive insufficient or inadequate representation in literature. In the four short years of our founding, we have been able to preserve our commitment to diversity and inclusivity by publishing the work of 12 talented and distinct poets, whose poetry cover a wide range of topics from ethnicity, sexuality and religion to immigration, suicide and discrimination. Our press’s cooperative process of integrating the ideas and skills of our poets, editors and publisher have given us the ability to bring fresh and diverse voices into the literary world. With the help of donations, grants and private investments, we have been able to publish each literary work without charging a single submission fee to ensure that poets and writers of all ages, ethnicities, sexual orientations, abilities, and economic statuses would have their voices heard.

December 2015Frauen, die wir lieben
Filmdiven und ihre heimlichen Verehrer
by Freddy Langer
Von Ava Gardner, Katharine Hepburn und Romy Schneider, über Marilyn Monroe und Audrey Hepburn hin zu Catherine Deneuve und Charlotte Rampling – die Grandes Dames der Kinoleinwand, die als unwiderstehliche Ikonen, betörende Schönheiten und verwegene Femmes fatales in die Geschichte des Films eingingen, begeistern nicht nur Filmenthusiasten immer wieder aufs Neue, sie haben seit jeher auch Männerherzen höherschlagen lassen. Freddy Langer versammelt in diesem Band die schönsten Liebeserklärungen von Schauspielern, Autoren, Filmemachern, Musikern, Malern, Journalisten, Regisseuren – die geistreich, subtil, direkt, leidenschaftlich, witzig oder tiefsinnig, dabei aber immer ganz ehrlich ihre Verehrung zum Ausdruck bringen. Mit Texten von Volker Schlöndorff, Harry Rowohlt, Peter Härtling, Markus Kavka und vielen anderen.

October 2023Freddie Mercury
Little People, Big Dreams. Deutsche Ausgabe | Kinderbuch ab 4 Jahre
by María Isabel Sánchez Vegara, Ruby Taylor, Silke Kleemann
Als Farrokh Bulsara wurde er im heutigen Tansania geboren. Freddie, wie man ihn nannte, lernte Klavier und beeindruckte im Schulchor durch seine imposante Stimme. Stundenlang konnte er vor dem Radio sitzen und Musik hören, am liebsten Rock’n’Roll. Als die Familie nach London zieht, die coolste Stadt für einen Musiker, landet er schnell in einer Band, sie nennen sich »Queen«. Und ihre Queen ist Freddie Mercury, der mit seinen Bühnenkostümen Furore macht und mit seinem Gesang sowieso. Monatelang stehen die von ihm komponierten Lieder wie »Bohemian Rhapsody« oder »We are the Champions« auf Platz 1 der Charts. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Philosophin, Forscherin oder Sportler, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen.

Children's & YAMarch 2020Amelie Trott and the Earth Watchers
by Moyra Irving
This is the extraordinary story of how one small girl stopped a planetary catastrophe. It’s a very timely book, written for the child in us all, with a forceful message about the power of young people to transform the world - a theme currently demonstrated by brave young heroes like Greta Thunberg. And with magical synchronicity, the very week Greta began her lone vigil outside the Swedish government last year, over 1,000 miles (1,897 km) away in the fictional world of books, Amelie Trott took to Parliament Square, London - on a mission to avert the End of the World. It’s a family drama with an international feel - set mainly in England but with episodes in Washington DC and around the world.

Forestry & related industriesDecember 2007Indigenous Fruit Trees in the Tropics
Domestication, Utillization and Commercialization
by Edited by Festus K Akinnifesi, Roger RB Leakey, Oluyede C Ajayi, Gudeta Sileshi, Zac Tchoundjeu, Patrick Matacala, Freddie R Kwesiga
It has been recognized that an important factor in improving the viability of rural livelihoods in developing countries is the promotion of sustainable agriculture. As opposed to relying solely on cash crops, this can be more easily achieved through the domestication of various indigenous fruit trees that can be cultivated and owned by smallholder farmers. Through multi-functional and integrated farming systems, these tree crops can support environmental and social sustainability by providing food as well as promoting economic growth. Twenty years ago, little was known about the biology, ecology or the social impact of indigenous fruit trees on rural populations. Since then, new concepts and approaches have been developed, case studies have been produced and the potential and feasibility of their domestication and commercialization has been explored. This focused study on the tropics brings together a comprehensive review of this research.
