  Ten Bridges I've Burnt - A...

  In Ten Bridges I've Burnt, Brontez Purnell—the bard of the underloved and overlooked—turns his gaze inward. A storyteller with a musical eye for the absurdity of his own existence, he is peerless in his ability to find the levity within the stormiest of crises. Here, in his first collection of genre-defying verse, Purnell reflects on his peripatetic life, whose ups and downs have nothing on the turmoil within. "The most high-risk homosexual behavior I engage in," Purnell writes, "is simply existing." 
   
   
   
  The thirty-eight autobiographical pieces pulsing in Ten Bridges I've Burnt find Purnell at his no-holds-barred best. He remembers a vicious brawl he participated in at a poetry conference and reckons with packaging his trauma for TV writers' rooms; wrestles with the curses, and gifts, passed down from generations of family members; and chronicles, with breathless verve, a list of hell-raising misadventures and sexcapades. Through it all, he muses on everything from love and loneliness to capitalism and Blackness to jogging and the ethics of art, always with unpredictable clarity and movement. 
   
   
   
  With the same balance of wit and wisdom that made 100 Boyfriends a sensation, Purnell unleashes another collection of boundary-pushing writing with Ten Bridges I've Burnt, a book as original and thrilling as the author himself.

  'Maybe it's in the air. Maybe it's the weather. Maybe it's the pace of life. Maybe it's breathing in that black soot everyday on the tube. Maybe it's commuting. Maybe it's the cultural consciousness. Maybe it's being a millennial. Maybe it's the climate crisis. Maybe it's the patriarchy.'
  When 'intimidating' Rachel and eternal 'nice guy' Nick meet at an awkward work Christmas party, what was meant to be a one-night-stand becomes a sexual odyssey of self-discovery… and mutual destruction.
  Adrift, isolated and insecure, they scramble for new ways to connect. Can some playful, passionate pegging provide a pathway through the pitfalls of modern relationships and present the possibility of a deeper bond?
  A penetrating comedy about the search for sexual knowledge, true love and top-notch Tupperware, Lisa Carroll's play The Misandrist was first produced by Metal Rabbit Productions at the Arcola Theatre, London, in May 2023.

  Love is the bridge - Tales of...

  What if your deepest longing belonged to someone who lived before you? 
  Spanning continents and generations, Love is the Bridge is an epic tale of three love stories—one of forbidden desire, one of sacred surrender, and one of a soul divided across time. 
  From New York’s boardrooms to Rumi’s Konya, from a Berlin haunted by memory to the vanished gardens of Shiraz and Kabul, Arian Nazrani’s journey begins as a search for truth. At the helm of a crumbling tech company, he finds himself unraveling—caught between the demands of a fading world and the stirrings of a deeper call. 
  When he uncovers his uncle Masud’s lost diary—a poetic chronicle of heartbreak and mystical awakening—Arian is drawn into a world where time dissolves, and love transcends lifetimes. 
  In the whirl of sacred rhythm, past and present collapse—and Arian glimpses a love that once lived through Masud, and now lives again through him. 
  This is a story of longing. 
  Of exile and return. 
  Of love that survives death and distance. 
  Because time is an illusion. 
  And love is the bridge.
