    The Resurrection & Calvary

    When your faith is destroyed, to what do you turn? Reason? Absolution? Or do you continue on believing? These are the clashing personalities of the three men of "The Resurrection," watching guard for the disciples after Jesus' crucifixion, all struggling with their preconceived notions of the world after his death, and are precarious, yet ready, as to what to do next. 
    Can man be satisfied in Heaven? If Heaven is brought down to earth so freely, will man reject it for want of freedom? These are the themes put forward in "Calvary" through the mouths of Lazarus and Judas, the man who could not be beholden to death, and the man who would not be beholden to God. ... And yet, their desires laid upon cross are all too human... all too understandable.

    'you need to be a warrior right now,especially in Wetherspoon's where you're slightly scaredto take a pissand for comfort you search 'Mudlarking' on your phone,as you squat in the cubicle with one footpressed hard against the doorin case someone should come inand realise what you are.'
    Jackson Phoenix Nash is an essential new poetic voice. Funny, tragic, deeply lived, his poems snap you wide awake.
    'There is an artful balance of humour and melancholy that makes these poems into a gorgeously unforgettable experience for the reader. Jackson's poetry embodies both trans joy and trans vulnerability in such a candid and heartfelt way that it leaves a beautiful mark on the mind.' Golnoosh Nour
    'This collection is essential reading: powerful, arresting, brave, heartbreaking and funny. Jackson's 'glissando' journey from 'geezerbird' through 'decomposing girlhood' and 'premature elation' to 'phoenix' is told with wry humour, deft imagery and open-hearted candour. It ought to be on every school syllabus.' Maggie Butt

    The audiobook of Tim Key's least ambitious project to date. A slim book of the crap he’s been churning out over the past eighteen months.  
    Poems about men getting stuck in webs, poems about the ancient city of Canterbury, poems about canoodling with a rose.  
    A prolific sod, he’s selected ninety of his trademark vignettes and packed them off to Emily Juniper for her to fling onto pages and shape into a book.  
    Discussions ensued about what, if anything, the point of it all was, and a healthy debate as to whether it should be broken up into chapters and, if so, why. All of these discussions are documented in the leftover space around the poems. The result is a splurge of words which very occasionally shine a light on modern times.  
    It is the third book Tim and Emily have generated together. 
    Chapters by Tim Key. 
    Read by Tim Key with Katy Wix as Emily Juniper. 
    Produced, recorded and edited by Naomi Parnell. 
    Executive producer is Ben Williams.
