Sinopse

This long-awaited poetry collection from award-winning Pasifika poet Karlo Mila spans work written over a decade. The poems are both personal and political. They trace the effect of defining issues such as racism, poverty, violence, climate change and power on Pasifika peoples, Aotearoa and beyond. They also focus on the internal and micro issues – the ending of a marriage, the hope of new relationships, and the daily politics of being a partner, woman and mother. The collection meditates on love and relationships and explores identity, culture, community and belonging with a voice that does not shy away from the difficult.

Death is a subject that few of us talk about, but many think about and more than a few of us dread.  Whether it is the actual end of our life’s journey or merely a transit point to Heavenly glory its actual point of impact is, obviously, life changing. But what do poets think of it?  How do their minds tangle with the subject and make sense of this?  That’s what we thought too.   Poets as rich and diverse as Tennyson, Hardy, Shelley & Poe here share their words, thoughts and visions with us. Death is unavoidable but the journey there should be as informed and enjoyable as possible. On this Volume our readers include Richard Mitchley & Ghizela Rowe

An irreverent and unsettling play that interrogates paranoia, ambiguity and innocence in our highly sexualised world.
Gethin has just finished his film course and reckons he's the next Scorsese. His mum is on at him to do her friend's wedding video - before the couple get divorced!
But Gethin is interested in a much more daring project - one that will get him into dangerously deep water, question his idealism and turn his life and that of his family upside down.
Stacey Gregg's play Perve was first staged at the Abbey Theatre, Dublin, in 2011.
'Gutsy, polished... Gregg's concept is stunningly good, and uncannily timely... this is a gripping paranoia drama' - Irish Independent
'In her first full-length play, Stacey Gregg tackles very current concerns about the sexualisation of children and loss of innocence' - Guardian
