Sinopsis

"Bartholomew Fair: A Comedy" by Ben Jonson is set at the bustling Bartholomew Fair in London. It follows various characters, including Quarlous and Winwife, who vie for the hand of Grace Wellborn. The fair becomes a microcosm of society, with merchants, conmen, and gullible visitors. The play satirizes greed, hypocrisy, and the chaos of city life. Amidst the colorful chaos, Jonson explores themes of morality and human folly, creating a vivid portrait of 17th-century urban culture.

    In the second Domesticated instalment, East Anglian punk poet, James Domestic, is once again taking potshots at work, so-called-punk-rock, outdoor and indoor pursuits, aging, right wing lunatics, politics, feet, and himself. As if that wasn’t enough, you’ll also find his trademark surrealism, sarcasm, and quintessentially British whimsy applied to animals, emails, food, and the power of music, alongside his idiosyncratic illustrations, and photographs from his murky past. A man in too many bands to count, a solo artist, a vocalist, a songwriter, a DJ, a poet, a painter, and a punk. James Domestic failed miserably at school through the distractions of music, alcohol, and girls, spent his early post-school life between the chemical factory and the dole, and somehow now has a PhD. A square peg in life’s round hole. A face that never fitted. He couldn’t care less. Come along for the ride. “A sardonic, sarcastic wit, a penchant for the surreal, and a dynamic pace” (Nathan Brown, Louder Than War) “Words that bite, belch, and bleed in their brilliance” (Mark Grist, multi-award-winning poet and battle rapper) “A unique collection of poetic ventures into the human condition, with humour, anger, and a canny use of language: inspired and inspiring!” (Dick Lucas, Subhumans, Culture Shock etc.) “Relentless” (Attila the Stockbroker, social surrealist poet and songwriter).

    North of Boston - Early Poetry...

    Frost's third book of poetry, North of Boston, is an extraordinary set of poems that are nearly dramas, conversations drawn from the heat of life, love, and death.From Home Burial and Death of the Hired Man to A Hundred Collars to The Generations of Man. Frost's work in this volume spans the whole range of human experience, expressed always in his characteristic dry, matter-of-fact, yet wonderfully musical verse. He captures the voices and lives of women and men, old and young, parent and child, and friend in crucial moments of change and intense emotion. 
    In his earlier volumes, he found his voice; in this book, he finds his mastery of language and image, character, and action.  Enjoy!
