Synopsis

Two timeless masterpieces. One legendary poet. The foundation of Western literature.
Step into the world of ancient Greece, where gods, warriors, and mortals shape the fate of nations. In The Iliad, Homer delivers a breathtaking account of the final weeks of the Trojan War—filled with heroic duels, divine interventions, and the tragic wrath of Achilles. In The Odyssey, follow the cunning Odysseus as he battles storms, mythical creatures, and the will of the gods to return home after ten long years of war.

These epic poems are more than just tales of war and adventure—they are meditations on honor, loyalty, fate, and the resilience of the human spirit. With their rich imagery, unforgettable characters, and timeless themes, The Iliad and The Odyssey remain cornerstones of world literature, inspiring countless retellings for over 2,500 years.

    Long theorized to be one of Shakespeare's mid-career works, As You Like It remains an evergreen favorite for audiences and scholars alike for its sparkling characters, pastoral setting, gorgeous prose and entertaining storylines that converge in fun and surprising ways. When several characters, including an elderly French duke, his headstrong daughter Rosalind, and Rosalind's handsome love interest Orlando, are forced to flee the kingdom and take refuge in the neighboring Forest of Arden, their adventures therein lead to a series of amusing encounters and mix-ups. Genders are reversed, courtships are developed, attractions are left unrequited, and the action reflected upon by the likes of witty fools and discontented courtiers. Who will end up with whom? Who will be left in the lurch? And will the pastoral chaos in Arden reach a satisfying resolution? You'll have to listen to find out!

    Sophie is about to become a single mum – a third-generation one – and she's terrified. How will she afford to feed her baby? Or a Deluxe Snuggle Pod? Can she hold on to her job? What if she's crap at parenthood? Surely she can count on her own mum and nan to help...
    Except her mum's got used to having a life of her own, and doesn't fancy giving up pole-dancing class and Tinder to go back to changing nappies and no sleep. Meanwhile, fresh out of hospital with a broken leg, her nan's having a three-quarter-life crisis of her own.
    From slammed doors to living-room karaoke, Lydia Marchant's play Mumsy is a sparky, soulful comedy drama about the highs and lows of motherhood. It premiered at Hull Truck Theatre in March 2023.

    Loss-iLahleko (A National Choreopoem): The Audio Experience invites you on a heartfelt journey of loss and return. This audio adaptation brings the choreopoem from the full-length book Loss-iLahleko (A National Choreopoem) to life, offering a deeply moving literary and sonic experience. 
    The full-length book is a richly layered work with four parts: a multilingual choreopoem exploring loss through songs and poems by South African female authors in Indigenous languages and English; short South African stories reflecting the lived experiences of countless women and children, including Finding Katlego and Palesa's Lockdown Escape by Elaine Pillay, Elo Phupho by Bulelwa Sigcau, and Fizza by Qhali; motivational reminders offering hope; and key information on Gender-Based Violence (GBV). Each piece sensitively weaves forms of GBV into a tapestry of voices that speak to resilience, suffering, and healing. 
    This audiobook immerses listeners in the vivid worlds of the choreopoem, seamlessly moving between English and South Africa’s Indigenous languages. It reflects the resilience, trauma, and strength of women and children while echoing the languages of their mothers, bearing witness to the persistent uncertainty and lack of security in the land they call home. 
    Loss-iLahleko is SA’s first multilingualised book series on GBV, written and translated into 11 books by extraordinary South African female writers in all the country’s official languages. To explore the full book, visit the publisher’s website. 
    Trigger Warning: This experience includes themes of GBV which may be distressing for some listeners. Please listen with care.

    Gaia is a channeled poetry book about claiming your inner goddess, and finding your truth.  
    This poetry book is for those who are ready to step fully into themselves, and their divine feminine energy. 
    Now is the time 
    For the Goddess to rise 
    To help us dissolve 
    All the lies 
    All the things 
    That we've been told 
    That have influenced us 
    As we grow old 
    It's time for you 
    To make the choice 
    To heed the wisdom 
    Of your inner voice 
    It will call to you 
    In times of change 
    But this is the way 
    Your life will arrange 
    So that you can claim 
    The Goddess within 
    Find your truth 
    And what you believe in 
    This channeled poetry book was inspired by the rising feminine energy on the planet at this time. 
    If it’s time to claim your inner goddess, let Gaia Rise Of The Goddess connect you back with the heartbeat of mother earth!
