Synopsis

In "Exiles," James Joyce crafts a poignant exploration of themes such as betrayal, love, and identity through the lens of a modernist play. The narrative revolves around the tumultuous relationship between Richard Rowan, a disillusioned writer wrestling with his reflections on fidelity and emotional honesty, and his wife, Beatrice. Joyce's distinctively intricate use of language and dialogue creates a psychologically charged atmosphere, allowing the audience to delve into the inner workings of its characters who grapple with their desires and societal expectations, set against the backdrop of early 20th-century Dublin. James Joyce, renowned for his revolutionary contributions to literature, particularly in works like "Ulysses" and "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man," penned "Exiles" during a transitional period in his life, revealing his personal struggles with exile, belonging, and artistic integrity. Joyce's own experiences of living abroad and his complex relationships informed the play, making it a rich, semi-autobiographical reflection on his pursuit of truth and artistic freedom. This compelling play is highly recommended not only for its innovative structure and deep psychological insight but also for its exploration of universal human experiences that resonate across time. Readers seeking to uncover the intricate tapestry of Joyce's thoughts on love and exile will find "Exiles" both intellectually stimulating and emotionally resonant.

    Life is full of love, but it is also full of loss. Like paper cuts to the heart, every big and seemingly insignificant loss—the loss of friendships, faith, dreams, health, community, and everything in between—grieves us more than we think it will, and often more than we let on. Why? Because they matter. 
     
     
     
    In this compassionate and deeply personal book, Rachel Marie Kang invites you to see and be seen in the midst of your sorrow, your suffering—your story. Through prose and poetry that gives voice to all the things we lose along the way, this gracious book will help you 
     
     
     
    ● ponder your loss without judgment 
     
     
     
    ● remember what was and make meaning of your memories 
     
     
     
    ● reflect on what is yet to be as you heal with hope 
     
     
     
    You don't have to bury your pain, and you don't have to pretend you're over it just because the world thinks you should be. Let Rachel walk hand in hand with you, giving space for sorrow and welcoming you as you find your way along the path to healing.

    Two Belfast lads, Mojo and Mickybo, relive the summer of 1970, when they were growing up in the city, playing headers, building huts and re-enacting cowboy movies.
    At first, their friendship is immune to the sectarian violence taking place around them. But nobody is safe from it forever...
    
    Owen McCafferty's play Mojo Mickybo is an unsentimental portrayal of innocence betrayed by communal hatred. It was first performed at Andrews Lane Studio, Dublin, in October 1998.
    The production subsequently toured in Ireland and Scotland in 1998 and 1999.
    A feature film version, Mickybo and Me, was released in 2004, adapted and directed by Terry Loane, with Julie Walters, Ciarán Hinds and Gina McKee in supporting roles.
    The play was revived at the Arcola Theatre, London, in 2007, afterwards transferring to the Trafalgar Studios in the West End.
    'Mojo Mickybo marries the polished ferocity of Howie the Rookie with the chirpy candour of Disco Pigs... This play is an energising reminder of the fact that all you need for truly magical theatre is a writer inspired by the thought of the stories that can be made on the stage' - Scotsman
    'A glorious, vivid little play full of verbal swagger... creates vast emotional ripples... small but lethal' - Guardian
