Sinopsis

For Charly, every day is the same. Things used to be different, when there was Clo, but now there isn't Clo, and Charly doesn't want to dwell on that. She just wants to chug coffee, blast Beastie Boys and deal drugs. Simple.
But when Charly suffers a power cut, she's forced back into the real world of knock-off Morrisseys, disapproving mothers and, ultimately, a world she has to navigate alone.
Lady Dealer is a mile-a-minute, one-person poem play by Martha Watson Allpress about forgiveness, the exhaustion of trying, and mistaking self-destruction for self-preservation.
It premiered in Paines Plough's Roundabout during the 2023 Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
Disponible desde: 10/08/2023.
Longitud de impresión: 64 páginas.

    "Two souls, alas! are dwelling in my breast; and one is striving to forsake its brother."
    
    Dr. Faust is a brilliant scholar who has reached the limits of human knowledge, yet remains profoundly dissatisfied. In his thirst for infinite experience and absolute truth, he strikes a daring wager with the demon Mephistopheles: if the devil can provide a moment of such perfect bliss that Faust wishes it to never end, the devil may claim his soul. What follows is a cosmic journey through the heights of passion, the depths of despair, and the very foundations of Western civilization.
    
    From Personal Tragedy to Global Myth: In Part One, experience the intimate, heartbreaking "Gretchen Tragedy," where Faust's pursuit of earthly pleasure leads to the destruction of an innocent woman. In Part Two, the scope expands into a surreal, phantasmagoric exploration of history, politics, and classical mythology, as Faust seeks to find his place in the broader world.
    
    The Height of German Romanticism: Goethe's Faust is more than a play; it is a "World Poem" that captures the restlessness of the modern spirit. It explores the dangerous allure of progress and the redemptive power of the "Eternal Feminine." With its rich symbolism and breathtaking verse, it remains the ultimate exploration of the human condition—asking if a soul that never stops striving can ever truly be lost.
    
    Witness the wager that defined an era. Purchase "Faust" today and journey to the edge of heaven and hell.

    Reminiscent of Mary Oliver’s A Thousand Mornings and Amanda Thomson’s Belonging, this evocative blend of poetry, prose, and personal letters unfurls a story of an untamed, beautiful place—and one woman’s choice to spend the last chapter of her life making it her home. 
    At age sixty-two, Fern started a new life. 
    Recently widowed, she found a piece of neglected acreage above the Snake River on which to build a home, forge a community—and find renewed purpose. On the land around Fern’s Pond, she nurtured a vineyard, an abundant garden, and a small farm of sheep, one cow, a goat, and chickens. She befriended wild ducks and harvested trout in her waters, and she used the materials that grew around the pond and springs to weave baskets—unique works of art that captured the elegance of the natural world. 
    Songs from Fern’s Pond is a collage of poetry, letters, and prose that captures the universal resilience of the human spirit through the humor and courage of a woman who fearlessly pursued the life she dreamed of. A duet of text between mother and daughter, it’s a transcendent vision of the rough, wild, and beautiful landscape of the heart—and a reminder that every chapter is worth living to its fullest.
