  "SallyV doesn't merely read her poetry, she embodies it, captivating the audience, and breathing life into the page." ~ Sarah L. Pratt, Literary Events Manager, Owl's Nest Books 
  Sally's captivating stories have an aesthetic appeal that makes you linger on the page enjoying each poem with unexpected leisure." ~ Jade O'Riley, poet, literary advocate 
  "The book HWY 22 is truly an Alberta tale, told in verse, including details like good boots being necessary, small towns, driving for what seems endless amounts of time across the prairies, and the ever-present mountains. Well worth the read." ~ Karen Lee, author, memoirist 
  "Sally V Truss, poet/lyricist, has come home to herself. Feel the music in her finely crafted, rhythmic words. Clever humour is tightly woven with wisdom as this immigrant girl finds her way past the tight ill-fitting shoes of her childhood to the boots that suit her.

  '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.

  Thresh & Hold

  A New York Times New-in-Poetry feature 
  Marlanda Dekine’s debut collection is a holy, radical unlearning and reclamation of self. What does it mean to be a Gullah-Geechee descendant from a rural place where a third of the nation’s founding wealth was harvested by trafficked West and Central Africans? Dekine’s poems travel across age and time, signaling that both the past and future exist in the present. Through erasure and persona, Dekine reimagines intergenerational traumas and calls institutions from the Works Progress Administration narratives to modern-day museums to task. 
  Beyond gospel music, fear, and the stories of generations past, Thresh & Hold offers magic, healing, and innovative pathways to manifest intimacy. Dekine remembers, remakes, and brings forth their many selves, traveling far in order to deeply connect to a spiritual home within and all around them, calling: “I am listening to Spirit. I am not dying today.”  
  Marlanda Dekine is the winner of the 2021 New Southern Voices Poetry Prize, judged by Gabrielle Calvocoressi.

  There is (still) love here

  There is (still) love here, the compelling new collection of poetry by Dean Atta, is a personal and powerful exploration of relationships, love and loss, encompassing LGBTQ+ and Black history, Greek Cypriot heritage, pride and identity, dislocation and belonging.
  Atta's tender, precisely-crafted and generous poems seek consolation and affirmation. These are poems as an antidote for challenging times, whether facing prejudice or the challenges of the pandemic, experiencing grief or recovering from heartbreak. Here, we encounter blue feelings and homesickness, things lost in translation and the pressures of the many roles we play in life. We also find the recipes of home, gifts and giving, the togetherness of community and connection to help us to heal. There is still love here - and journeys towards forgiveness, acceptance, queer joy and the power to unapologetically be yourself and fully embrace who you are.
