  Red Corner - a poetic collection

  Dawn Web

  Through spoken word and musical compositions, Red Corner underpins the interconnectedness of key themes: identity, sexual health, neurodiversity, queer and political issues, sexism, racism, illness, suicide, perseverance, and navigating intergenerational trauma. Be transported by Dawn's raw and vulnerable tone: a visceral and transformative experience. Accompanied by musician and songwriter Salwa. 
  “The early chapters are spare, confessional, and often emotionally messy...strange, uncanny, and disorienting. In the first half of the collection, Web typically favours economical, lyric poetry reminiscent of Phyllis Webb’s Naked Poems, but often plays with the rhythmic and declarative registers of slam poetry, sections of dialogue that call to mind screenwriting, and prose poems. This formal elasticity builds towards the sixth chapter, Vortex, a personal essay that chronicles the poet’s journey through mental illness, sexual assault, and sexual identity. The voice in this chapter and the following—Backwards, a socially-minded section reminiscent of Karen Solie’s politically charged poetry—is confident, even strident; the path to that self-assurance has been traced in the earlier chapters, which reveal Web’s ambivalence, in terms of diagnosis, embodiment, illness, and treatment. In the final chapters, Web returns to an intimate and confessional voice that opens towards a greater sense of connectivity, community, and acceptance. RED CORNER is more than a collection—it’s a carefully mapped journey that acknowledges the difficult and essential nature of self-acceptance... Web’s first book is a great read—it’s complex, thoughtful, and engaging. The breadth and the depth of the writing in RED CORNER promises that it won’t be the last from this ambitious, brave, and introspective young writer.”

  FAME & Other Disasters by Maria P Frino is a celebrity drama novel and is an adult contemporary  suitable for readers 18+ 
  Fame is a double-edged sword, and nowhere is this more precarious than in the cutthroat world of television hosting. 
  Molly Edwards and Emma Bears Jones are inseparable—two powerhouses of television, hosting rival shows on Shine Ch33 and BBS12. But years of friendship crumble in a single night, a scandal sparked by a reckless decision at an industry party that sends their lives spiralling out of control. 
  In a haze of drugs and poor judgment, both women end up in bed with Richard—Emma’s lover. Molly wakes first, horrified to find herself naked between her best friend and Richard. 
  Desperate to forget the whole thing, Emma tries to bury the incident, but Richard isn't willing to let it go. He’s drawn to Molly’s tender touch and wants more, igniting a chain of betrayal. 
  When Emma uncovers their continued tryst, her fury explodes across social media, transforming a private mistake into a very public spectacle. Apologies from Molly go unanswered, and the vicious back-and-forth between the two goes viral, dragging their careers into the mud. Sponsors pull out, viewers abandon them, and both women are left without a show, their hard-won careers evaporating overnight. 
  Crushed under the weight of scandal and failure, Molly flees to Mumbai, India, seeking solace and purpose, hoping to mend her shattered life. Here she had helped build an orphanage during an extended gap year, Tulip Treasures. But redemption is never easy, and a near-fatal accident threatens to take away what little she has left. 
  As Molly fights to reclaim her life, the question remains: Can she and Emma ever reconcile, or will the wounds of betrayal be too deep to heal?
