  The story Charles Dickens might have written after drinking too much gin…
  Follow half-orphan Pip's extraordinary exploits with sisters Pippa and Poppy and best friend Harry Biscuit, as they attempt to escape the calculating clutches of the dastardly Mr Gently Benevolent, defeat the hideous Hardthrasher siblings, and deflect disaster at every turn! Will evil be vanquished by virtue? Can love triumph over hate?
  Mark Evans' stage play Bleak Expectations is a hilarious, chaotic caper, featuring dastardly villains, preposterous names, pulse-quickening romances, heart-rending death scenes, and definitely, probably, hopefully a happy ending.
  Based on the award-winning BBC Radio 4 series, the play opened at The Watermill Theatre, Newbury, in 2022, directed by Caroline Leslie. It transferred to the Criterion Theatre in London's West End in 2023, where it featured a medley of many well-known actors and comedians.
  It offers rich opportunities to amateur theatre companies looking for a gloriously daft Dickensian romp which will have their audiences joyfully transported and begging for more.

  On the Morning of Christ's Nativity

  John Milton

  John Milton's On the Morning of Christ's Nativity is no ordinary Christmas poem. Written when he was just twenty-one, it reveals an early glimpse of the depth and ambition that would later shape Paradise Lost. Here, the nativity is not sentimental but cosmic: a quiet moment that echoes across heaven, earth, and myth.
  This is poetry as vision—blending classical imagery, biblical themes, and rich musical language. Angels descend, stars pause in wonder, and the natural world falls into a hush. Pagan gods retreat into silence, as if even they recognize the shift in power. The newborn Christ is portrayed not as a helpless child but as a divine force whose presence alters the very fabric of time and meaning.
  Milton's language is grand but not distant. Each stanza is alive with texture, rhythm, and the gravity of ideas beyond the page. This is not a poem that tells a story—it opens a door. And on the other side is a world both ancient and eternal, where poetry and theology walk hand in hand.
  Listeners will find here not just a work of seasonal reverence but a meditative, imaginative journey. It's a bold start from a young poet already aware of the weight of words—and how they can shape both heaven and earth.

  From the author of The Baudelaire Fractal, a poetry classic, with new work
  		 
  In 2004, boldly original poet Lisa Robertson published a chapbook, Rousseau’s Boat, poems culled from years of notebooks that are, nevertheless, by no means autobiographical. In 2010, she expanded the work into a full-length book, R’s Boat. During the pandemic, she was drawn back into decades of journals to shape Boat. These poems bring fresh vehemence to Robertson’s ongoing examination of the changing shape of feminism, the male-dominated philosophical tradition, the daily forms of discourse, and the possibilities of language itself.

  There was a time when I was falling, 
  My enemies surrounded me. 
  I was wounded and weary. 
  I felt so weak unable to fight anymore. 
  My eyes were dark and, 
  my strength was almost gone. 
  I prayed and cried out to God; I felt forsaken. 
  I was hurt and felt abandoned. 
  Then I reminded myself of his words 
  that he will never leave me. 
  I cried with my whole heart, 
  He heard me and save me from my enemies.
