  Ami’s dream is to make the world a better place. As a lover of nature and an adventurer, she is concerned about the environment and seeks to make it safer. 
  Unfortunately, she would realise that her friends—the various elements of nature, are in danger due to the behaviour of human beings. As a caring friend, she is willing to do her best to save them. 
  This book underscores the journey and adventures of Ami, starting from her desire to help Sun get its smile back, helping animals to survive, understanding the role of the Moon and the Earth, to taking actions to make the world a better and safer place.

  Thomas Stearns Eliot (September 26, 1888 - January 4, 1965) was an American-British poet, essayist and playwright. He is considered to be one of the 20th century's greatest poets, as well as a central figure in English-language Modernist poetry. His use of language, writing style, and verse structure reinvigorated English poetry. He is also noted for his critical essays, which often re-evaluated long-held cultural beliefs.

  'I'm going to answer all your wishes, bubba! Big or small, it'll be me who makes them come true, no one else.'
  Leila is happy living at home with Noor, her loving but traditional grandmother. But when Aleena, her fiercely independent mother, returns home from prison determined to deliver a new world of fun and excitement, their calm lives are upended in a blur of nail varnish and sweet treats.
  Family secrets come tumbling into the light, and Leila finds the task of deciding on her future more difficult than she first thought.
  Ambreen Razia's play Favour is a touching and hopeful family drama about a working-class Muslim family, tackling duty, addiction and the challenge of pulling yourself back together after it all falls apart. It was a Bush Theatre and Clean Break co-production and premiered at the Bush, London, in 2022, directed by Róisín McBrinn and Sophie Dillon Moniram.

  More Songs the Radio Won’t Play...

  Lyrical poetry inspired by popular songs, Rogal sweeps the reader through the journey of creation.
  		 
  In More Songs the Radio Won’t Play, Stan Rogal takes formerly “popular” tunes (from various genres) and transforms them. Self-referentiality; mashups of the erudite and profane; allusions to other arts and sciences; the insertion and bending of biographical and historical facts; problematic snippets of philosophy and literary theory, quotes, and bastardizations; deploying non- or a-political language to challenge notions of how a poem should work; sampling; and off-kilter humour work together to update Rogal’s playlist for a present-day audience.
  		 
  While his poems unavoidably serve to comment on the world today, Rogal resists a central message. The true emphasis of this collection is on the process of creation. It’s not the destination but the journey that is of significance. Not mere cover versions, not exactly parodies (though parodic), these poems are redactions, mutations, Frankenstein’s monsters … they resemble the original — somewhat — yet are also grossly different.

  The Poetry of Khalil Gibran -...

  Kahlil Gibran

  Gibran Khalil Gibran was born on 6th January 1883 in the village of Bsharri, Beirut Vilayet, then part of the Ottoman Empire 
  His mother took him and his siblings to the United States in 1895 where he was enrolled into a Boston school and his creative talents soon noted.  He was sent home to be schooled at the Collège de la Sagesse in Beirut but returned to Boston following the death of his youngest sister in 1902.  Within a year his mother had also died. 
  In 1904, Gibran's drawings were displayed for the first time and, a year later, his first book, in Arabic, was published in New York City.  With financial help from a benefactress he studied art in Paris from 1908 and here his path crossed with dissident Syrian exiles.  Over the years he would meet many more like-minded exiles who were exploring ways to overthrow the yoke of the Ottoman Empire.   
  By 1911 he had settled in New York working on his drawings and paintings which were now being regularly exhibited. His writing was also attracting much attention and gaining an audience.   
  His first book in English, ‘The Madman’ became an international phenomenon.  Whilst his writing has overshadowed his visual works there is no doubt that a copy of ‘The Mad Man’ is never far from any bookshelf.  This and other works have ensured his stature as an artist is world-wide and that it continues into these more modern times.  Gibran was regarded as a literary rebel and a leading figure of the Arabic literary Renaissance and made influential contributions to Western poetry, stories and thought. 
  Khalil Gibran died on 10th April 1931 in New York City from cirrhosis and incipient tuberculosis in one lung.  He was 48.   
  Gibran was one of a number of Arab intellectuals and writers who lived in the United States at the beginning of the twentieth century and who had a great influence on the development of modern Arabic literature through the exploration of Western literary movements.  The group was presided over by Gibran himself and was baptized Arrabitah, or “The League.”  Its influence is acknowledged as fundamental. 
  In this volume of poetry Gibran is able to capture and demonstrate and enlighten much of the human condition and the wonder of the world around him.
