Sinopse

Dr Richard Myers, the great IVF innovator, is virtually a secular saint because of the thousands of babies he has created throughout his career. Now, his family have gathered at his home on Manhattan's Upper West Side to see him receive a lifetime achievement award.
It's not long before this fractious group, more accustomed to debate than empathy, fall into dispute once again: over conflicting Thanksgiving memories, polarised opinions on investment banking, and how best to care for their ailing father. And crucially, who will inherit Richard's wealth and his prestigious science institution?
A vivid and thrilling portrait of a brilliantly dysfunctional family, Alexis Zegerman's The Fever Syndrome was first produced at Hampstead Theatre, London, in March 2022, directed by Roxana Silbert.
Disponível desde: 08/04/2022.
Comprimento de impressão: 128 páginas.

    Life is full of love, but it is also full of loss. Like paper cuts to the heart, every big and seemingly insignificant loss—the loss of friendships, faith, dreams, health, community, and everything in between—grieves us more than we think it will, and often more than we let on. Why? Because they matter. 
     
     
     
    In this compassionate and deeply personal book, Rachel Marie Kang invites you to see and be seen in the midst of your sorrow, your suffering—your story. Through prose and poetry that gives voice to all the things we lose along the way, this gracious book will help you 
     
     
     
    ● ponder your loss without judgment 
     
     
     
    ● remember what was and make meaning of your memories 
     
     
     
    ● reflect on what is yet to be as you heal with hope 
     
     
     
    You don't have to bury your pain, and you don't have to pretend you're over it just because the world thinks you should be. Let Rachel walk hand in hand with you, giving space for sorrow and welcoming you as you find your way along the path to healing.

    O Reader, so special and dear!  
    Perhaps, in a corner, you sit today,  
    spirit broken, tears rolled, you sway.  
    A grain of sand, swept off, só confused;  
    struggling, searching, your heart suffered, bruised!  
    Many uncertainties weigh on your soul-  
    unexpected illness, violence, death a toll.  
    May poetic words ease your heart's silent plea-  
    heavenly comfort to help you be free!  
    To relax and smile through both joy and despair,  
    read Isaiah 43, find solace in prayer!  
    And may that tiny grain of silica becomes bright,  
    unfolding like quartz, bringing beauty and light!  
    Wishes from my heart, 
    Johanita

    'Who knows what adventures await?'
    It's Thursday night – so Jess, Maryn and Milo are at Dennis's board-game café, continuing their quest to defeat the Nightmare King… It has been months, but now all that stands between them and victory is a few lucky rolls of a twenty-sided die.
    A struggling student, an overworked trainee solicitor and a reluctant job-seeker, here they are transformed into Dungeon Master, Wizard and Warrior Princess. But what happens when the line between fantasy and reality begins to blur?
    Funny, gripping and heartfelt, Jack Bradfield's play The Habits opened at Hampstead Theatre Downstairs, London, in 2025, directed by Ed Madden.
