  The language of Poetry is an art that most of us attempt at some point in our lives.  Although its commonplace exposure has been somewhat marginalised in today’s often fast-paced lives we all recognise good verse that can empathise with our thoughts or open us up to experience new things in new ways, to better understand and to enjoy the many strands of our lives. 
  But finding a starting point can be overwhelming, even off-putting, so in this series we offer up our Top 10 classic poets, who brim with talent and verse, on a range of subjects and themes that we can all enjoy. 
  The United States may be far younger than many nations on Earth, yet its tumultuous history has reaped a harvest of poets and poetry of very fine calibre.  In this volume we explore the verse of Massachusetts.

  They say you can’t catch a fish with a hook.  
   
  It’s 1925, a world on the cusp of change. Hitler has published Mein Kampf and Mussolini has shut down the free press in Italy. 
   
  Three friends meet on a Scottish estate for a weekend of salmon fishing and convivial conversation over brandy and cigars: Winston Churchill, future world leader, ‘Bendor’, 2nd Duke of Westminster and Coco Chanel, iconic fashion entrepreneur. The narrative develops into a visceral account interspersed with sharp and insightful humour, revealing two men whose deep friendship is divided by their profound political differences, as each of them tries to navigate an uncertain world. 
   
  And then there is Coco Chanel, also an accomplished angler and Bendor’s mistress. She enters wearing furs and exits wearing waders. 
   
  In Winston & The Duke, Rory Fellowes delivers a thought-provoking play that invites the audience to question: 
  Have we learned anything from history?Should we pay attention to past events rather than purge them for comfort’s sake?Can controversial friendships exist openly and provoke change in today’s political arena?  
   
  That is for the listener to decide. 
   
  Winston & The Duke was developed through WIN: Writers Innovative Network and was directed by Maureen Payne-Hahner.

  "You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts."
  
  In the city of Orphalese, the people gather to say farewell to Al-Mustafa, the "Chosen and the Beloved." Before he departs, they ask him to speak his truth on the fundamental experiences of human life. Through a series of lyrical and profound dialogues, Al-Mustafa provides timeless insights into love, pain, work, friendship, and death. Gibran's work transcends religion and culture, offering a blueprint for a life lived with meaning, compassion, and spiritual freedom.
  
  The Art of Living: Gibran does not offer rigid rules but rather a philosophy of balance. He teaches that joy and sorrow are inseparable, that work is "love made visible," and that true friendship is a field "which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving." His words act as a mirror, reflecting the reader's own inner wisdom.
  
  A Global Phenomenon: Since its publication, The Prophet has never been out of print. Its popularity lies in its simplicity and its ability to speak directly to the human heart. It has served as a guide for millions during life's most significant transitions—from weddings and births to the finality of death.
  
  A Synthesis of East and West: As a Lebanese-American artist, Gibran blended the mysticism of the East with the Romanticism of the West. This unique perspective allowed him to create a work that feels both ancient and modern, providing a sanctuary of peace in an increasingly chaotic world.
  
  Seek the truth within. Purchase "The Prophet" today and discover the wisdom that has inspired generations.
