Sinopsis

Poems by Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell presents a fascinating tapestry of themes ranging from the sublime to the intimate, reflecting the complex literary landscape of the 19th century. This anthology marks an important period where women's voices, though often veiled by male pseudonyms, began to penetrate the traditionally male-dominated sphere of poetry. The collection embodies a rich array of styles, from the introspective and melancholic to the emotionally evocative and nature-infused, offering pieces that stand out for their nuanced exploration of solitude, love, and the human spirit. The diversity within the pages creates an intricate mosaic of sentiments uniquely crafted by the Brontë siblings, without any one piece overshadowing another. The contributing authors, Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Brontë, while adopting pseudonyms—Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell—collectively enrich the anthology with their distinct perspectives rooted in the cultural and literary currents of their time. Influenced by Romanticism and the burgeoning Victorian ideals, their works collectively echo a resilience and exploration that challenges the societal norms of their era. They represent an era of transformation, their voices resonating with movements that sought to articulate female consciousness and individuality amid an evolving literary tradition. This anthology is a compelling invitation to explore the multiplicity of perspectives unified by the Brontës' genius. Readers are encouraged to immerse themselves in this poetic dialogue, which underscores the educational value and profound insights of their collective oeuvre. For anyone seeking an expansive view of historical, emotional, and literary depth, Poems by Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell is a scholarly treasure that facilitates meaningful explorations into the human condition, demonstrating the remarkable convergence of their artistic talents.

    Mai Der Vang's poetry—lyrically insistent and visually compelling—constitutes a groundbreaking investigation into the collective trauma and resilience experienced by Hmong people and communities, the ongoing cultural and environmental repercussions of the war in Vietnam, the lives of refugees afterward, and the postmemory carried by their descendants. Primordial is a crucial turn to the ecological and generational impact of violence, a powerful and rousing meditation on climate, origin, and fate. 
     
     
     
    With profound and attentive care, Vang addresses the plight of the saola, an extremely rare and critically endangered animal native to the Annamite Mountains in Laos and Vietnam. Remarkably, the saola has only been known to the outside world since 1992, and sightings are so rare that it has now been more than a decade since the last known image of one was captured in a camera trap photo in 2013. 
     
     
     
    Primordial examines the saola's relationship to Hmong refugee identity and cosmology and a shared sense of exile, precarity, privacy, and survival. Can a war-torn landscape and memory provide sanctuary, and what are the consequences for our climate, our origins, our ability to belong to a homeland? Written during a difficult pregnancy and postpartum period, Vang's poems are urgent stays against extinction.

    'I know it's difficult. You've obviously been a good friend to her but it's time to let us take over now.'
    Es and Flo fell fiercely in love in the eighties. They've been living as secret lovers ever since. As Es becomes more forgetful around their home, an unexpected carer arrives. Who sent this woman? Why? And can they trust her?
    As the outside world comes crashing in, Flo fights to protect the life they've built together over forty years behind closed doors. And faces the hardest battle of her life – to hold on to the woman she loves.
    Jennifer Lunn's play Es & Flo is a sharply observed, deeply compassionate drama, coloured with memories of the Greenham Common Women's Peace Camp. It celebrates an older lesbian relationship, women coming together to fight for what's right, and the healing power of chosen family.
    The play was produced by Wales Millennium Centre, Cardiff, and opened there in 2023 before moving to Kiln Theatre, London, directed by Susie McKenna. It won the Popcorn Group Writing Award and the Nancy Dean Lesbian Playwriting Award.
