  When Whistle’s young life takes a dramatic turn in one of the worst ways imaginable, the boy decides its time to move on and see what lies ahead. Besides, the pull he feels is far too strong to resist. 
  Starting out with little to no life experience, Whistle has absolutely no idea where he might end up, or the path his journey will lead him down. But one thing he is quite certain about is that it’s going to be one hell of a ride. 
  This book is filled with extraordinary characters and amazing situations that ramp up the story from the very beginning to the very end. 
  And through it all, there will be great successes and epic failures. But you’ll see that the long trail traveled will definitely be more than worth it in the end.

  'And what happens when the pendulum swings too far? We push back.'
  In the 1970s, one enigmatic old lady wielded extraordinary influence, fighting against what she believed was the UK's moral decline. Armed with only a typewriter, this seemingly harmless grandmother took on the BBC and the 'godless media' in a culture war that divided the nation.
  Inspired by real events, Caroline Bird's wickedly funny play delves into Whitehouse's most explosive battle – her infamous blasphemy trial against Gay News – and explores her formidable resolve to push back the tide. Was she a pearl-clutching prude or 'the most dangerous woman in Britain'?
  A fascinating investigation into freedom and censorship, The Last Stand of Mrs. Mary Whitehouse was co-commissioned by Nottingham Playhouse, Eleanor Lloyd Productions and Pakenham Projects. Premiering at Nottingham Playhouse in 2025, it was directed by Sarah Frankcom and starred Maxine Peake and Samuel Barnett.

  The Snow Globe

  The Snow Globe is Jenny Pagdin's powerful, sensitive and stark debut collection. Written from first-hand experience, under the glass dome of postpartum psychosis, her poetry depicts a fearsome, glittering inner storm of severe mental illness during new motherhood, moving through illness, through snow flurry and sunshine, to a place of recovery and love.
  Threaded through this book are illuminating and courageous poems that settle and unsettle in equal measure. They cluster moth-like around spiritual and mythical figures, unravelling and remaking themselves with needlework and yarn, threaded along shorelines and under starry night skies. Jenny Pagdin's skilful and attentive use of a variety of forms reflects multiple and jarring realities – with poems dancing their own chaotic, fragmented and strange glinting beauty towards resolution.
