  'I sit on the loo and think about all the people I can have sex with now. I'm not obsessed with sex. I just can't stop thinking about it.'
  The Fleabag bites back. A rip-roaring account of some sort of female living her sort of life.
  Phoebe Waller-Bridge's debut play is an outrageously funny monologue for a female performer. It premiered at the 2013 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, performed by Phoebe herself, before transferring to Soho Theatre, London, for several successful runs, followed by a UK tour.
  It won a Fringe First Award in Edinburgh, the Most Promising New Playwright and Best Female Performance at the Off West End Theatre Awards, The Stage Award for Best Solo Performer and the Critics' Circle Award for Most Promising Playwright. It received a Special Commendation in the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize and was nominated for the Olivier Award for Outstanding Achievement in an Affiliate Theatre. In 2016 it was turned into a wildly successful and 'utterly riveting' (Guardian) BBC television series.
  This edition also features an introduction by the author.
  'Believe the hype, Waller-Bridge's raw writing… really is as good as everyone says' - The Stage
  'Sucker-punch funny... I've never seen a play quite like it' - Scotsman
  'frank and sometimes brutally funny... devastatingly good' - The Times
  'blessed with a rare and compelling life force... deliciously dirty and scabrously funny' - Evening Standard

  ABOUT THE BOOK  
  A debut collection of poetry from platinum ARIA accredited artist Ziggy Alberts, 'brainwaves', explores life's experiences and emotions, inwards and out. Deeply personal, frank, insightful yet relatable, Alberts uncovers his introspective thoughts and lessons learned in conscious and intentional living. Differentiating from his lyrical work, readers can discover some of Alberts' most personal realisations from life at home and on the road.   
  Divided into 4 chapters, each poem entices the next train of thought. Alberts masterfully draws observations of the natural environment to paint his experience of introspective moments. He contemplates modern-day dilemmas, timeless topics of purpose, trust, stillness, and love. 
  brainwaves 
  is a polite request 
  an invitation into 
  a vulnerable relationship 
  between the writer 
  and the reader 
  it is an ode 
  to word of mouth 
  to paper pages 
  to hard copies 
  handed to strangers 
  shared with lovers 
  kept with family 
  to taking chances on books 
  without knowing 
  the entirety of its contents first 
  to do and practice just that 
  of which we do so little of today 
  with books and relationships alike. 
  brainwaves 
  was not made for the internet 
  it was made for you

  A deeply wrought and joyful debut poetry collection from an exciting new voice  
  Looping exultantly through the overlapping experiences of girlhood, Blackness, sex, and personhood in America, award-winning essayist and poet Kendra Allen braids together personal narrative and cultural commentary, wrestling with the beauty and brutality to be found between mothers and daughters, young women and the world, Black bodies and white space, virginity and intrusion, prison and freedom, birth and death. Most of all, The Collection Plate explores both how we collect and erase the voices, lives, and innocence of underrepresented bodies—and behold their pleasure, pain, and possibility 
  Both formally exciting and a delight to read, The Collection Plate is a testament to Allen’s place as the voice of a generation—and a witness to how we come into being in the twenty-first century.
