Reminder: Sinkhole: Three Crimes book launch at ICA London, Tuesday 18th October

Our latest release, Sinkhole: Three Crimes, a novel in three parts by Rosanna McLaughlin, will be launched at the ICA, London on Thursday the 18th October. Along with Rosanna, there will be readings from invited writers and artists Ellie Hoskins, Bod Mellor, and Shola von Reinhold.

Sinkhole: Three Crimes submerges readers in a grotesque and comical world on the edge of collapse – much like our own. Britain is immersed in a toxic swamp, and sinkholes are opening up in the ground with alarming frequency. Amid the mayhem, three crimes take place: Stonehenge has been stolen, a porn-addicted ghostwriter faces the phantoms of her past, and a murder takes place among expats in a Goan village.

Get tickets for the event on Tuesday 18th October here.

Pfeil Magazine Issue #16 Friend Launch at London Performance Studios, Bermondsey, Saturday November 5th

Celebrate the launch of Pfeil #16, the Friend Issue, with a day and night of radio and live performance on Saturday the 5th of November at the London Performance Studios, featuring pre-recorded shows from Ru + Muni, Cradle Community, Jolanta Nowaczyk & Alexandra Ivanciu, Till Krause and Shirin Fahimi, and live performances from Asma Ben Slama, Louis d’Heudières, Katy Lewis Hood & Petero Kalulé and Adam Christensen.

Based on mutual affection and trust, this issue focuses on the meaning of Friend along with its opposites, in the sense of material, animal or human relationships, kinship, phantoms and ghosts, parasitism, love, enmity, similarities or incompatibility. We deal with political connections to the economy, the criminal justice system, a waterbed, befriended sunflowers, and sock poems.

Within the format of a magazine, each page of Pfeil represents the floor, walls, or ceiling which together create an imagined room displaying a printed exhibition. Each issue is dedicated to a specific word, and artists are invited and given space to work on and with this term, and to construct or deconstruct the architecture around it. Combined, the contributions transform into an organic display surrounding the leitmotif.
