Sinopsis

In 'The Little French Lawyer,' readers are transported into a tumultuous tapestry of legal drama, romantic entanglements, and moral questioning, rich with the wit and depth characteristic of early 17th-century playwrights. This anthology, embracing both a concise narrative structure and a distinctly comedic lens, showcases a plenitude of emotional themes—ranging from justice and honor to love and folly. The collection holds a mirror to its historical period, reflecting societal norms and the judicial landscape while intricately weaving satirical tones and evolving character arcs, culminating in a range of evocative dialogues that are the hallmark of this era. Edited by renowned playwright duo John Fletcher and Francis Beaumont, the collection captures their collaborative genius that influenced the Jacobean theatre scene. Their contributions underscore a shared literary movement intent on infusing classical traditions with innovative stagecraft. Their joint efforts in exploring the societal mores of their time provide insights into the intricacies of human nature and the interplay of personal and societal ethics, effectively fostering a richer understanding for the audience. This anthology is a compelling resource for readers seeking to engage with the rich tapestry of cultural and literary motifs descriptive of the Jacobean period. 'The Little French Lawyer' is not just a collection but an invitation to experience a confluence of diverse narratives and styles, delivering an educational and aesthetic expedition through the multifaceted landscapes crafted by Beaumont and Fletcher. Through this collection, readers will find themselves immersed in a world where varied perspectives dynamically blend to offer timeless reflections.

    "Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore— While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping—rapping at my chamber door. "Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door — Only this and nothing more." Those sonorous and somber words of Edgar Allan Poe that begin The Raven are part of most everyone's fond educational memories. Beautiful and haunting to hear and even more fun to read aloud. In this recording I have just attempted to express my enjoyment of the beauty in some favorite Poe poems. Beside The Raven, there are Alone; A Dream Within A Dream; Annabel Lee; City In the Sea; The Bells; A Dream Within a Dream; Annabel Lee; Dreamland; Evening Star; Lenore; Eldorado; A Valentine and "The Happiest Day". Hopefully listeners will enjoy hearing them half as much as I enjoyed the selfish pleasure of recording them.

    The Snow Globe is Jenny Pagdin's powerful, sensitive and stark debut collection. Written from first-hand experience, under the glass dome of postpartum psychosis, her poetry depicts a fearsome, glittering inner storm of severe mental illness during new motherhood, moving through illness, through snow flurry and sunshine, to a place of recovery and love.
    Threaded through this book are illuminating and courageous poems that settle and unsettle in equal measure. They cluster moth-like around spiritual and mythical figures, unravelling and remaking themselves with needlework and yarn, threaded along shorelines and under starry night skies. Jenny Pagdin's skilful and attentive use of a variety of forms reflects multiple and jarring realities – with poems dancing their own chaotic, fragmented and strange glinting beauty towards resolution.

Segal’s debut poetry compilation, (Un)Tethered, pulls us into moments of conflict—both internal and external—and self-reflection as it explores universal themes of love, loss, death, growth, fear, and self-realization. But despite the timelessness of these themes, the poems are also distinctively Segal’s, conveying their unique experiences, depth of feeling, and struggles with identity and relationships. A striking collection that will embed in your memory.
