  The poetry of Brett Alan Dewing – together in one place for the first time. 
  Dewing's work examines life under God, lived in "the eucharistic world". With a keen sense of wit and wonder, Dewing stretches the boundaries of language and familiar forms (some of the poet's own design, such as the villanette and the vela). Believing that a poet is by nature at a loss for words and that every poem must be a failed attempt to express our "Substance Insubstantio", he has left no combination of words unturned during his decades-long career. 
  Covering a span of over 30 years, this collection includes four previously published collections:Have You Not Heard?Take, Eat, Remember, and BelieveReliquariesthe beginning of the blood: Christmas and Advent poems 
  as well as debuting some brand-new work.

  We're jumping tomorrow

  B. J. Birkmann

  Written for boys who like to eat other people's sorrows, or not eat at all, and for girls who love them regardless. 
  Nick and Mark are 20-something nihilists with nothing but Thursday evenings, a mattress, and the weight of their own thoughts. In one final attempt to find meaning, they give themselves a week to search. If they fail, they jump. 
  We’re Jumping Tomorrow is an intimate, hauntingly poetic novella designed to be read in one sitting, like stumbling upon a stranger’s tragic story online, finding empathy for them, and then scrolling away. Combining sharp cynicism with raw, visual prose, it captures the fleeting yet profound nature of human connection, mental illness, and the quiet desperation of young adulthood. 
  Never quite meant for the public eye, We’re Jumping Tomorrow holds enough importance to be released anyway. Though darkness and pessimism spread throughout its pages, an unshakable sense of humor and self-deprecation stand firm, reflecting this generation’s ability to face even the most gruesome thoughts with a grin.

  Animal Farm

  George Orwell

  'All animals are equal. But some animals are more equal than others.'
  When the animals in the farmyard rebel against their tyrannical farmer and take control of the farm, they hope to create a world where they can be equal, happier and free. But as power shifts and a new leader emerges, they soon face the age-old question: what does it really mean to be equal?
  Exploring loss of identity, the seductive allure of privilege, and the corrupting nature of political power, George Orwell's Animal Farm is a classic story of rebellion and treachery, and a timely reminder of the importance of resistance.
  Tatty Hennessy's adaptation received its professional premiere in 2025, directed by Amy Leach, co-produced by Leeds Playhouse and Stratford East in association with Nottingham Playhouse, and performed at all three theatres. It was commissioned and first performed by the National Youth Theatre of Great Britain in 2021. The play won Best Play Revival at the 2025 UK Theatre Awards.
