  The Faithful Shepherdess by John Fletcher is a captivating early 17th-century pastoral play that weaves together themes of love, virtue, morality, and human desire. Celebrated as one of Fletcher's finest dramatic works, this play combines lyrical poetry, allegorical storytelling, and engaging characters to explore the enduring tension between fidelity and temptation.
  
  The story follows Clorin, a shepherdess renowned for her steadfast virtue, whose unwavering fidelity makes her a model of moral and emotional strength. Throughout the play, she faces numerous challenges, including the romantic pursuits of admirers, the threats of deceitful rivals, and the trials of human passion. Clorin's steadfastness and grace serve as a moral compass, highlighting the rewards of integrity, patience, and true devotion.
  
  Set in an idyllic pastoral landscape, Fletcher's work features lush descriptions of nature, musical interludes, and poetic dialogue that elevate the narrative while reflecting the beauty and harmony of the natural world. The pastoral setting provides a symbolic backdrop for exploring human behavior, virtue, and the often-complex interplay between love and morality.
  
  In addition to its aesthetic appeal, The Faithful Shepherdess engages with philosophical and ethical themes, such as the value of constancy, the consequences of vice, and the moral education of youth and society. Fletcher's characters embody virtues and vices, allowing audiences to reflect on human nature, ethical decision-making, and the power of steadfastness in a world of temptation.
  
  As a seminal example of early modern pastoral drama, The Faithful Shepherdess continues to inspire readers and scholars with its lyrical elegance, moral depth, and rich characterizations. This timeless work remains a testament to Fletcher's skill as a playwright and his ability to blend entertainment, poetry, and ethical reflection into a harmonious and enduring literary masterpiece.

  How to be Dead in a Year of Snakes

  The award-winning first book of poetry by Chris Tse – now available as an audiobook.
  Winner – Jessie Mackay Award for Best First Book of Poetry at the 2016 Ockham New Zealand Book Awards
  The world is full of murder
  
  and words are usually
  the first to go
  In 1905, white supremacist Lionel Terry murdered the Cantonese gold prospector Joe Kum Yung to draw attention to his crusade to rid New Zealand of Chinese and other East Asian immigrants.
  Chris Tse uses this story – and its reenactment for a documentary a hundred years later – to reflect on the experiences of Chinese migrants of the period, their wishes and hopes, their estrangement and alienation, their ghostly reverberation through a white-majority culture. Along the way we visit the gold fields of the south, a shipwreck in the Hokianga that left the spirits of 500 Chinese goldminers in an unmemorialised limbo for a hundred years and the streets of Newtown, Wellington, where Lionel Terry went out one night ' looking for a Chinaman' .
  Chris Tse' s flickering use of imagery, resonant language and flexible pronouns are particularly suited to the historic events he describes and the viewpoints he shifts through.  How to be Dead in a Year of Snakes  is a welcome poetic addition to New Zealand literature.

  A goodbye letter and a fresh new journey. Her voice is elegant, unique and original. This is what a new poetry bursting from raw heart sounds like. 
  Ayse's untamed words and Ash’s melodies will take you on a journey to a different reality.
