  Comic Book Artist and Pop Culture Geek, Dean Rankine doesn't know anything about writing poetry. But a little thing like that isn't going to stop him from writing a poem once a week for a year, putting those poems into a book and sending them out into the universe. 
  "Dean's poetry is like watching someone dragged upside down by a bolting robot horse through a cacti patch. It's exhilarating, you chortle, but then you're flooded with existential dread that we're all gonna die in stupid ways." - Ryan K. Lindsay (Beautiful Canvas, Deer Editor) 
  Narrated by Ben Sorensen 
  Recorded at the studios of BSE Australia for Shooting Star Press.

  This program is read by the author. 
   
  A powerful, inventive collection from one of America's most critically acclaimed poets. 
  Carl Phillips's new poetry collection, Pale Colors in a Tall Field, is a meditation on the intimacies of thought and body as forms of resistance. The poems are both timeless and timely, asking how we can ever truly know ourselves in the face of our own remembering and inevitable forgetting. Here, the poems metaphorically argue that memory is made up of various colors, with those most prominent moments in a life seeming more vivid, though the paler colors are never truly forgotten.  
  The poems in Pale Colors in a Tall Field approach their points of view kaleidoscopically, enacting the self's multiplicity and the difficult shifts required as our lives, in turn, shift. This is one of Phillips's most tender, dynamic, and startling collections yet. 
  A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux

  Jesse is paranoid and frightened, and it's messing up his relationship, his job, his son and his life. But Jesse has every reason to be frightened; he is increasingly feeling the sting of rising prejudice in every part of his life.
  Stephen Laughton's play One Jewish Boy explores key moments over an eight-year relationship between a nice Jewish boy from North London and the nice, not-so-Jewish woman with whom he falls in love.
  An urgent response to anti-Semitism, this bittersweet comedy focuses on one young family's struggle against prejudice, and asks if the fear of hatred could be worse than hate itself? It was first produced at the Old Red Lion Theatre, Islington, in 2018, before transferring to Trafalgar Studios in London's West End in 2020.
  This edition also includes the short play Three.
