Sinopsis

The life experiences and feelings, the frights and agonies of the world are observed and expressed in the simplest, most immediate and succinct way in Margiolas' poetry.  Christos Alexiou
 
"I took up writing, out of a personal need.
 
To enhance my pace, even a bit.
 
To understand the dimensions of the world, the responsibility of the Sun.
 
To withstand the deluge of light and the wisdom of silence.
 
To listen to the great poets raising life to its height.
 
To hear the agonizing voice of Dionysios Solomos crying out loud for a free motherland! To hear Elytis apologizing for his century to the light of the Aegean.
 
To hear the blind Argentinian poet Jorge Luis Borges shouting his belief that: ‘I lost nothing apart from the insignificant surface of things’ ". Elias Margiolas

You're born a girl. You grow up. You grow old. You die. But along the way can you really forge your own identity? Can you actually choose your own destiny? And would you do anything differently if you could do it all over again?
Second Person Narrative by Jemma Kennedy is part of Platform, a new initiative from Tonic Theatre in partnership with Nick Hern Books.
Aimed at addressing gender imbalance and inequality in theatre, Platform comprises big-cast plays with predominantly or all-female casts, written specifically for performance by school, college and youth-theatre groups.
'Drama is an important tool for building confidence and empowering young people. Platform will give girls opportunity to access these benefits as much as their male counterparts.' - Moira Buffini

Yvonne Green's latest collection extends the urgent and compelling territory of her earlier, award-winning books. Politically engaged, many of the poems consider the human cost of war, while others deal equally intensely both with ideas and with domestic and city landscapes. A final section furthers the translations from Russian she began in 2011 with her PBS Recommended title, After Semyon Izrailevich Lipkin.
