Sinossi

This book opens the gates to a world of prose, verses original and poetry so fresh like an English garden, in what will be regarded as this poets first real journey into the publishing world. 
There is a mix of ideas in here that would suit anybody's tastes, a touch of supernatural, a couple of cats whiskers, two shakes of the dice and you have a meal of words that tickle your tastebuds. 
This is a book of very random ideas unlike the later collection of poems written by this self published poet. This is just a brief introduction into one of Englands new writing talents.

The Secret Garden

Frances Hodgson Burnett

'What happened then, some would say, was almost magic.'
Disregarded and disobedient, ten-year-old Mary Lennox is sent from India to Yorkshire, and put into the care of an uncle she has never met.
At Misselthwaite Manor, a brokenhearted house full of secrets and strange noises, Mary discovers a garden as lost and neglected as she is. If she can learn to make friends with robins, grumpy gardeners and a boy who speaks to animals, Mary might be able to bring more than just the garden back to life…
The Secret Garden, Frances Hodgson Burnett's tale about the magic of nature and the nature of magic, has been a beloved and quietly radical classic of children's literature since its publication in 1911. Holly Robinson and Anna Himali Howard's thrillingly adventurous adaptation was first performed at Regent's Park Open Air Theatre, London, in 2024.

Here in America

David Edgar

'I'm saying there's someone who could stop this madness. If you stood up, and said "no".'
On a rainswept afternoon in 1952, Hollywood and Broadway's leading director Elia Kazan met his closest collaborator, the playwright Arthur Miller. As the anti-Communist crusade of McCarthyism blacklisted hundreds of their colleagues, Kazan and Miller faced a stark choice. Should they betray their friends, or risk never working again?
David Edgar's play Here in America is a compelling drama that imagines a confrontation between two giants of stage and screen, both passionately involved with an actress about to become the most famous movie star in the world. It was first performed at the Orange Tree Theatre, London, in 2024, directed by James Dacre.

A Palace of Waning - A...

Pamela Nocerino

Palace of Waning explores longing for a sense of home. Through themes of place, loss, and self, images wander into uneasy complexities of truth where the search for home distorts the view of its presence everywhere. Readers are invited as far as space and as near as the sound of moving fabric. 
Review: 
In A Palace of Waning, Pamela Nocerino’s luminous new chapbook, the poet traces the shifting landscapes of home, self, loss, and place. Here, “Red neon blinks / like it celebrates the danger” of icy roads, even as we are reminded that “The sun doesn’t rise / We rotate to see it.” Nocerino invites us into a world where beauty and peril intertwine, and where perception itself becomes a kind of illumination. 
–Leah Huete de Maines, Poet-in-Residence Emerita at Northern Kentucky University
