The Wonderful World of Dissocia
Anthony Neilson
Lisa Jones is on a journey. It's a colourful and exciting off-kilter trip in search of one lost hour that has tipped the balance of her life. The inhabitants of the wonderful world she finds herself in - Dissocia - are a curious blend of the funny, the friendly and the brutal. Softcover, 156 pp. $22.95.
The Railway Children
Mike Kenny & E. Nesbit

The Pain and the Itch
Bruce Norris
With a young daughter in serious need of attention and a ravenous creature possible prowling the upstairs bedrooms, what begins as an average Thanksgiving for one privelaged family unravels into an expose of disastrous choices and less-than-altruistic motives. The Pain and the Itch is a scathing satire of the politics of class and race, a controversial, painfully human examination of denial and it consequences. Softcover, $11.99.
Intemperance
Lizzie Nunnery
It's 1854, a time of dizzying change. Liverpool's streets are teeming with merchants and new arrivals from all corners of the globe. Every day as the walls of St George's Hall grow higher, in the bowels of the city the poor of the cellar-slums dring away their fears. It's never their time and they know their place. Softcover, 105 pp. $19.00.
