A three-act drama about political corruption in early–twentieth century New York, from the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Jungle.

The corrupt politicians of the Tammany Hall syndicate are using their business connections for their own financial gain, while some of the city’s most vulnerable are drawn into a human trafficking ring. But a journalist, a lawyer, and an activist are eager to go up against the broken system and take it down . . .

    Finding Freedom in the Face of Grief: A journey of Family and Self-Discovery. Ayse is incredible and she is not even aware of it. 
    Ayse Balkos's first book, Come To Tower, is the poetry collection of a fresh voice of a renegade woman, angry, hopeful, strong, confused, clear and vulnerable. The poems are accompanied by Ash Gray’s beautiful tones of Hummingbird Gibson acoustic guitar, dazzlingly honest, unpretentious and real journey of a soul. 
    A goodbye letter and a fresh new journey. Her voice is elegant, unique and original. This is what a new poetry bursting from raw heart sounds like. 
    Ayse's untamed words and Ash’s melodies will take you on a journey to a different reality. 
    She was born with a sense of void and that void taught her how to listen to her feelings. We are grateful for that sense and pain she had to go through to write these verses. 
    This audio book is an hour long.

    One of the very first publications to come off the Rough Trade Books press, Pessimism is for Lightweights began life as thirteen pieces of courage and resistance from the pen of the one and only Salena Godden. These are poems written for the Women's March, poems that salute peaceful protest, poems on sexism and racism, class discrimination, poverty and homelessness, immigration and identity. This new edition expands the collection to full book length and shows Godden at her inimitable best—deft technique and powerful emotional heft, with additional new poems reflecting on our fast- changing world with her trademark humour and resilience. This is a book full of light, courage and most of all hope..

    'They say work harder, strive harder. The machine strives for nothing.
    The loom does the work twice as fast and half as well.
    And they'll settle for that. They'll settle for that.'
    Machines can make our work easier. They can also make it vanish overnight. Joe Ward Munrow's play The Legend of Ned Ludd weaves together stories from around the world and takes us on a whirlwind global commute, from the Luddites' nineteenth-century war against new technology through to London, Liverpool, Lagos and beyond...
    But we're all at the mercy of The Machine. And, in this powerful exploration of work, automation and capitalism, The Machine selects the scenes for each performance, resulting in 256 possible versions of the play, spun from all the stories included in this published edition. It premiered at the Liverpool Everyman in 2024, directed by Jude Christian.
