  Modern Man ~ Neanderthal with Manners 
  Poem about the comparison of what it is to be a Modern man today. What it may have been yesterday, and what it 
  was to compare it to our relatively recent ancestors from just a hundred thousand years or so 
  - The Neanderthals. 
  Would they have been as cruel to their fellow beings as possibly we are today. What does it mean to be classified as 
  MODERN ! A modern Human ?

  Metamorphosis (NHB Modern Plays)...

  Franz Kafka

  • 0

  Gregor Samsa wakes up each morning, quietly leaves the house to take the same train, and works to pay off the family debt.
  But that world explodes one morning, when Gregor awakes to find himself changed. To those around him he is dangerous, untouchable vermin. Worse than that, he is a burden.
  Metamorphosis, Franz Kafka's shocking tale of cruelty and kindness, has been a literary landmark since it was first published in 1915. Lemn Sissay's thrilling stage adaptation is a visceral and vital depiction of humans struggling within a system that crushes them under its heel. It was commissioned and first produced in 2023 by Frantic Assembly, in a co-production with Theatre Royal Plymouth, Curve, MAST Mayflower Studios, and Lyric Hammersmith Theatre, and was directed by Scott Graham.

  White Ghosts

  Katie Hale

  White Ghosts, the debut collection by poet and novelist Katie Hale, traces maternal lines, and the legacies of slavery and whiteness interwoven into the fabric of America, through revealing, unflinching poems. Travelling deep into an intimate history that spans both sides of the Atlantic, Hale unravels the language haunting those narratives we choose to tell in official versions – through museum labels and civic statues – and in handed-down stories.
  Transformational and challenging, these sharply-detailed poems interrogate the bare bones of silence, complicity, difficult inheritances and racial constructs. Via wagon routes or interstates, on desert highways or in the landscapes of northern England, through nature and through human culture, questions of ownership and power are writ into the journey. Through four hundred years of female migration, the poems in White Ghosts use art, music, and lyrical reworking of the curated space, to address white guilt: what is lost through generations, and what is passed on?

  God of All Flying Things:...

  Rachel Devenish Ford

  God of All Flying Things is a gentle companion for those seeking God in the midst of lives full of beauty, longing, and mystery. 
  In this intimate collection of prayers and poems, Rachel Devenish Ford writes from the quiet spaces of her devotion to Christ. These are the words of someone who has sat quietly in sorrow, who has shouted prayers into the dark, and who keeps looking for the presence of God in birdsong, breath, and daily bread. 
  Alongside her poems, Rachel shares original paintings made during times of meditation. These are visual prayers that speak of reaching, belonging, and finding a dwelling place within the soul. 
  Whether you are feeling full or empty, certain or in the whirl of mystery, this book is an invitation to connection with the Divine Presence. 
  From the Author: 
  “I want this book to be kind and fierce. I want it to breathe. I want it to be human. I want it to reflect God's goodness, warmth, and love. 
  We, looking at God, have so many voices. We reflect the brilliance of God in our cells. 
  I am one voice, one of so many. So many people, alive or long passed, have encouraged me when my heart needed it. My voice also sings, and I want to show you my songs. 
  These are the poems of my attachment, the long, wandering relationship I have had with Christ. These are the poems of my wrestling. There are so, so many poems of love. Adoration. Longing. Resilience. Wisdom. Justice. Worship. These are the prayers I needed to shout. Dear friend, these poems are for you.”
