The Magpie Wing is set on football fields, in sharehouses, at punk gigs and in dilapidated and gentrifying pubs. Max Easton’s debut novel moves from the nineties to the present, and between the suburbs and the inner city, exploring how communities that appear worlds apart—underground music scenes, rugby league clubs, communist splinter groups—often share unexpected roots.

"Vents més salvatges" és una col·lecció de relats lleugers i, a la vegada, profunds. Contes que parlen de nenes, de mares, de tietes i d'àvies, que parlen de dones de l'actualitat i dones que van viure en temps passats. La prosa elegant de la Bel Olid s'endinsa en el conflicte personal i social i obre una finestra a diferents realitats. Parla de la foscor més intensa, de l'abús de poder, la violència i les forces institucionals que afecten els grups socials més marginats.

"Follem?" és un assaig que examina la sexualitat i el plaer i ho fa des d'una exploració més enllà dels clixés i els tabús. Aquest audiollibre parteix d'un nou inici per mirar la sexualitat sense la vergonya, les imatges preconcebudes o els papers autoimposats. És una nova manera de mirar cap a l'interior del desig i dels cossos humans i també cap a l'exterior, cap a les persones amb les qui compartim aquest anhel. Escoltar al cos, a l'ànima i no fer cas a tot el que s'ha imposat per defecte.

Art Barbara was so not cool. He was a 17-year-old high school loner in the late 1980s who listened to hair metal, had to wear a monstrous back-brace at night for his scoliosis and started an extracurricular club for volunteer pallbearers at poorly attended funerals. But his new friend thought the Pallbearers’ Club was cool. And she brought along her Polaroid camera to take pictures of the corpses. Okay, that part was a little weird. So was her obsessive knowledge of a notorious bit of New England folklore that involved digging up the dead.
