Sinossi

In "The Complete Poetry of Emily Brontë," readers are invited into the intricate emotional landscape that defines Brontë's poetic oeuvre. This collection showcases her profound engagement with themes of nature, identity, and the human psyche, often exploring the sublime and the melancholic with a unique intensity. Written in the early Victorian era, Brontë's verse distills the essence of Romanticism while also laying groundwork for modernist sensibilities; her striking imagery and innovative use of form challenge the conventions of her time, resulting in a body of work that is both timeless and deeply personal. Emily Brontë, best known for her enduring novel "Wuthering Heights," was also a remarkable poet whose creativity flourished within the confines of Haworth Parsonage. The isolation of her upbringing, her close relationships with her sisters, and her experiences in the Yorkshire moors significantly influenced her writing, providing a rich backdrop for her exploration of complex emotions and existential reflections. Her work often reveals the tension between the individual and society, underpinned by her own struggles with isolation and a yearning for understanding. This compilation serves not only as an essential read for students and aficionados of Brontë's work but also as a revelatory experience for those seeking to understand the depth of her artistic vision. "The Complete Poetry of Emily Brontë" captures the essence of a poignant voice that resonates with inner turmoil and beauty, making it indispensable for anyone interested in the evolution of English poetry.

    Enter the surreal world of August Strindberg's "The Ghost Sonata," where a young student becomes entangled in the mysterious affairs of a haunted mansion. As he navigates its labyrinthine corridors, he encounters a cast of eccentric characters, including a mysterious old man who seems to have blackmail over everyone in the house, a woman who has begun to resemble a mummy after being locked away in a closet for years, a young girl who can't leave her hyacinth room,  and an ethereal milk maid who seems to hold the future of everyone involved delicately in her hands. This truly is one of the most bizarre and nihilistic works to ever come out of Strindberg's catalog, but also helped lay down the correct foundation for his final play, the Great Highway.

    A small asteroid has hit the capital city. Thousands have been displaced. And in a town far away, a young man called Vin is finding it hard to talk. The only person who seems to notice is Rach, who resolves to find out what's troubling him and help him find his voice again.
    But when Rach's family take in an articulate and charismatic survivor of the asteroid incident, Vin's silence is no longer her first priority. How does it feel when the suffering of others seems more legitimate than our own?
    James Fritz's Lava is a timely play about grief and the power of expression, rocking with raw emotion and sharp humour. It premiered at Nottingham Playhouse in 2018, in a co-production with Fifth Word who commissioned the play. It was revived on tour in 2022, including a run at Soho Theatre, London.
    'Compassionate, warm and funny... Fritz's work pairs structural playfulness with emotional intelligence and inky wit... his plays are contained and compassionate, and frequently find reservoirs of humour in places you wouldn't expect' - The Stage

    1964: Richard Burton, the firebrand Welsh actor, newly married to movie star Elizabeth Taylor, is to play the title role in an experimental new production of Hamlet under the exacting direction of John Gielgud.
    But as rehearsals progress, the collaboration between actor and director soon threatens to unravel. One of them is the most famous movie star in the world; the other, a patrician from an earlier age of theatre. The stage is set for two titans to collide.
    Jack Thorne's The Motive and the Cue is a fierce, funny play which offers a glimpse into the politics of a rehearsal room and the relationship between art and celebrity. This edition was published alongside the West End transfer in 2023, following its world premiere at the National Theatre, London, earlier that year. Originally commissioned and co-produced by Neal Street Productions, it was directed by Sam Mendes, and starred Johnny Flynn as Burton, Mark Gatiss as Gielgud and Tuppence Middleton as Taylor. It was named Best Play at the 2023 Evening Standard Theatre Awards, and Best New Play at the 2024 Critics' Circle Theatre Awards.
