Sinopse

'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 new collection from Jane Routh, author of Circumnavigation, shortlisted for the Forward Prize for Best First Collection, and Teach Yourself Mapmaking, a Poetry Book Society Recommendation.
    After lockdowns have swept calendars clear, leaf-fall, early sunrise and gales are Jane Routh's measures of time, as she goes about her tasks in the hill pasture and woodlands where she has the luck to live.
    With sharp, lyrical description and down-to earth understanding, her poems consider the flora and fauna around her, formative moments and lifespans – as well as the dead who won't be forgotten. Her elegant and informed writing conveys a sense of belonging in a particular place and the care for its future, carrying a universal resonance.

Contacted by a literary agent that lived more than a hundred light-years from him, he agrees to write a poem book that describes the society in which he lives, for substantial compensation.Our main character describes his experiences with his shifted perceptions of what sometimes seems an almost surreal world, where people live out-of-time feelings, foresee the future in short glimpses, and blend reality with the digital world. Most of all, enjoy a world that praises fashion, art, and colors.Enjoy another original concept poetry book from the Timeless Adventures series.
