  Pink Moon - Poetry

  Roshan James

  Pink Moon is part anthem of decolonization, part oracle of the times. Earthy, magical, and steeped in ancestral connection, Roshan James fuses her lived experience as a Tibetan-Indian born in Scarborough, Ontario, with a tangible connection to nature, humanity, and realms of consciousness. Growing up in the South Asian diaspora, but feeling disconnected from her cultural roots, James makes peace with the tension between her self-identities through poetry.
  		 
  With lyrical ease and simplicity, James resonates off the page, holding the reader in a space, almost trance-like, of quiet confidence. Infused with street-style and deep contemplation, ancient tones and child-like questioning, this collection is a journey through abstract expression. Pink Moon sits at an intersection of timely themes: anti-oppression, melanated lived experience, climate action, social justice, and personal spirituality. The collection will be of interest for discussion in academia, literary circles, and among people who are passionate about art, mindfulness, meditation, holistic health, and nature.

  The year is 1553, the true Golden Age of English football. It's the Allen Valley Whitsun Game, and men will die today.
  This is the big game, and it's been raging for hours. Percy and Rowan are out in the middle of nowhere, miles from the action, when a stranger joins them. A stranger with tidings that will blow their world apart.
  Time passes. Night falls. The great chain of being collapses. And they're losing the bloody football...
  Stewart Pringle's play The Bounds is a darkly comedic tale of national divides, folk horror and the end of the world as we know it. It was first co-produced by Live Theatre, Newcastle upon Tyne, and the Royal Court Theatre, London, and performed at both theatres in 2024, directed by Jack McNamara.

  South Sanford only has one point of entry and one point of exit... 
  Trapped inside of South Sanford are poverty, corruption, media lies, and a human trafficking ring the city who live there are blamed for yet victims of. Nevertheless, ebony bombshell Shatima Thomas feels she's been led there by her spiritual guides to unite with the family she was separated from after her father was murdered by the police. In five years, all she's been met with are the desires of men and crooked cops who want to use her to get them locked up. Men are the last thing on her mind. She's too busy trying to protect her son from the abusive ex who got her pregnant and has been stalking her since. As he steps out of the shadows, she fears he has connections to her city's dark circumstances that she may not be able to shield her son from alone. 
  For Rahshaan Bailey, life is just something to do until he dies. Known on the streets as "Banger," his only goals are to find the son who was taken from him, and to get the pretty girl in his building to give him a chance. When he finds out he has a connection to her that goes beyond the lust he feels for the ebony bombshell, he makes it his life's mission to protect her and her son from whatever she's up against. If only she'll tell him what it is...

  This is a love story unlike any you have ever read. Join Mark Caan on his journey to save his soul. After a brush with death, he confesses to an unthinkable crime. A crime that could send him to jail for the rest of his life. His confession takes us back to his freshman year in college. There he meets and falls in love with Byron, a charismatic anti-war protester. Together they form a relationship that challenges the norms of what love means and to what ends it will take them. 
  The times are chaotic. It is 1968. The Vietnam war dominates the airwaves. The nightly news brings the war’s death and destruction into America’s living rooms with vivid details while the ominous threat of the draft haunts every young man’s psyche. The hippie culture is emerging and confronting the establishment head on. Anti-war protests are taking place on Main streets and college campuses across the country. Old perceptions about love, sex, drugs and war are all being challenged. After decades of struggle, and with the assassination of Bobby Kennedy and Dr. King, the civil rights movement is reaching a combustible crescendo. 
  As this historic backdrop unfolds, Mark and Byron must navigate their undeniable sexual attraction. 
  As Mark’s poignant confession gradually unfolds, it reveals a love that is layered with strength, sensuality, regret and forgiveness. 
  Now, twenty years later, as Mark is confessing to his pastor, all the emotions of a life lived in grief and regret are exposed. His haunting and powerful story aches with longing. A longing for his youthful naivety and absolute commitment to a love that knows no limits. 
  You will laugh and cry as Mark’s words spill from his heart. And finally, as a witness, you will cheer at his boundless love, and what it can achieve, even in the face of absolute resistance.
