Sinopsis

Everyone creates their own coping strategies or rules for living. But what happens when an extended family gathers in the kitchen for a traditional Christmas and they each follow those rules, rigidly?
As long-held mechanisms for survival are laid bare, even Mum, who's been preparing this lunch since last January, becomes embroiled. Time-honoured rivalries and resentments will out. Accusations fly, relationships deconstruct, the rules take over.
In Sam Holcroft's theatrically playful, dark comedy the instructions are there for all to see, audience included - so there's really no place to hide.
Rules for Living premiered at the National Theatre, London, in March 2015.
Disponible desde: 19/03/2015.
Longitud de impresión: 128 páginas.

    The breathing sound of birth pangs. 
    This collection is the author's first collection of poems and is being republished after 30 years.

Late Autumn, Flaming SunsetMy Love, Sunae,Bo ( Pure Love, Story)The Reason Yew Trees have survived for 2,000 yearsAuthor said the feeling of republishing of this collection after 30 years, is not only strange , but even magical. Well then he is reborn, let's do some cuddles. What is poetry? He asked this question 30years ago too. Like finding an answer to aquestion that everyone can ask but no one can still on the line of verbal barbarism,as much as the atar in the night sky scattered. He ask poetry again. He said that although he may not be phonex whose wings flutter across the light, he may not a phoenex who eats bamboo shoots and does not anything other than the precious paulownia tree but like a skylark singing in the spring, like a cicada enjoying the summer, like a wildflower blooming in abundance in the field in the fall, even if it's an old tree full of snow flakes in winter , It's good. So he hope to do this best to write healthy articles that comfort and support everyone and himself.

    'Love's irrelevant – we're talking about marriage.'
    This unique take on Jane Austen's beloved novel is an adaptation like no other, drawing on over two hundred years of romantic pop history, and featuring six young women with a story to tell.
    You might have seen them before, emptying the chamber pots and sweeping ash from the grate; the overlooked and the undervalued making sure those above stairs find their happy ending.
    Of course, these women have always been running the show – after all, 'You can't have a whirlwind romance without clean bedding' – but now the servants are also playing every part. Let the ruthless match-making begin!
    Isobel McArthur's acclaimed Pride and Prejudice* (*sort of) was first produced by theatre company Blood of the Young and seen at the Tron Theatre, Glasgow, in 2018. It toured the UK in 2019, produced by the two companies and the Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh, with co-producers Birmingham Repertory Theatre, Bristol Old Vic, Leeds Playhouse, Northern Stage, Nuffield Theatres Southampton and Oxford Playhouse.
    It is a truth universally acknowledged, that an amateur company in want of an irreverent all-female adaptation of a literary classic to perform, need look no further.

    SONGS IN THEY KEY OF DEATH, a collection of poetic horror, by JG Faherty 
    "Songs in the Key of Death is a collection of edgy, stirring poems from the author of such well-known books as Ragman and The Wakening. I was delighted to learn that JG Faherty is expanding his horizons into poetry, and the result is a fascinating compilation of dark enchantments. Highly recommended!" —Jeani Rector, Editor of The Horror Zine 
    "I love the way JG Faherty's extraordinary poetry collection plays with language, form, and emotion. These pieces are by turns frightening, melancholy, disturbing, smart, and darkly witty. Songs in the Key of Death is a hit!" —Lisa Morton, six-time Bram Stoker Award® winner 
    "I really enjoyed this collection. The poems are philosophical and eerie, sometimes brutal and disturbing, with a lot of sharp edges and concise choices of language and imagery." —Erinn Kemper, horror and weird fiction author whose stories have appeared in Tor.com, Black Static, Chiral Mad, Prism, Cemetery Dance Magazine, Dark Discoveries, and other markets
