  Franklyn was born into a gritty north of England town. His expected path through life would have him live out his years in the manner of that town's baseline existence. But it wasn't to be.Perhaps he was pre-selected to break rank so that bigger dreams could be fulfilled. Whatever the prime force may have been, he was to know a different life.Perhaps, too, the corridors of our own reality are flimsier than we believe! On the other side of the wall may lie another path.  As Franklyn himself discovers, a perceived reality can be as real as reality itself.

  Noah and Celeste Quilter met on a blind date organised by a newspaper, fell in love, got married and had a baby. But from the very earliest days of their relationship, they were under surveillance. And when they started a fight for their future, they never guessed it would cost them their lives.
  In a modern world where reality is whatever we imagine it to be, how do we know the stories we tell ourselves are true? What happens when there's only one person in the whole world you can truly trust? And what if they never take the bins out?
  Rapture by Lucy Kirkwood is a slippery thriller about love, power and belief which premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in June 2022, directed by Lucy Morrison. It was promoted under the title That Is Not Who I Am, by Dave Davidson, a pseudonym.

  Embark on an odyssey through human life and cherish our collective journey with a life-changing collection of haikus. 
  Cherishing and celebrating the passage of human life, this illuminating collection of haikus explores our journey from conception to death. Imbued with profound themes of love, parenthood, relationships, and the rich web of emotions that we experience along the way, this book roams through childhood, adolescence, adulthood, and finally old age with a thoughtful narrative that offers reflections on each stage of our growth. 
  Following the classic Japanese haiku structure that has made it such a popular and beloved form of poetry, Just a Passing Moment in Time offers us a window into human life – an event that is a brief moment in eternity, but a powerful and everlasting odyssey for everyone it touches. Author and poet Brett C. Persson invites you on a journey to discover the fullness of human experience, weaving imaginative wordplay that explores everything from the mundane to the extraordinary. 
  Through love and grief, joy and sadness, and the endless discovery and curiosity that drives us into the unknown, this collection will give you a newfound perspective and appreciation for the little things in life, along with those seemingly ordinary moments that hide a vast source of meaning and wonder just below the surface.

  Fanny

  'You're not stupid for wanting things to change, Fanny – it's just that we have to play the music that gets handed to us.'
  Meet Fanny Mendelssohn. You'll probably know of her younger brother Felix, from nineteenth-century smash hits like 'The Wedding March'. He was such a huge star that Queen Victoria requested a private concert, during which she sang her favourite of his compositions, a song called 'Italien'.
  The only problem is, that particular piece was actually composed by Fanny, though it was published under her brother's name.
  When Fanny intercepts the letter inviting Felix to play for the queen, she decides to hide it away, don her brother's clothes, and take his place at the palace…
  Calum Finlay's play Fanny is a joyful and irreverent comedy celebrating music, family and – at last – the work of a composer overlooked because of her sex. It opened at the Watermill Theatre, Newbury, in 2024.
