the effect luckstar enterprises lucy prebble

I can tell the difference between who I am and a side effect.The Effect is a clinical romance. Two young volunteers, Tristan and Connie, agree to take part in a clinical drug trial. Succumbing to the gravitational pull of attraction and love, however, Tristan and Connie manage to throw the trial off-course, much to the frustration of the clinicians involved. This funny, moving and perhaps surprisingly human play explores questions of sanity, neurology and the limits of medicine, alongside ideas of fate, loyalty and the inevitability of physical attraction.Following on from the critical and commercial success of Enron, The Effect offers a vibrant theatrical exploration into the human brain via the heart. It received its world premiere at the National Theatre s Cottesloe Theatre in November 2012, starring Billie Piper and Jonjo O Neill. It is published here in the Modern Classics series alongside an introduction by Miriam Gillinson.

Pizza is the Italian food that has conquered the world: from Brussels to LA, from Beijing to Buenos Aires, pizzas and pizzerias can be found everywhere today. But what are the origins of this food and how did it rise from its humble beginnings to become the world⠙s best-loved dish? The story begins in the narrow alleys of Naples where, in the late eighteenth century, the city⠙s impoverished inhabitants lived in a state of constant hunger. Pizza was born as a street food to assuage the hunger of Naples⠙ poor. Cheap and versatile, it remained anonymous for more than a century ⠓ the few outsiders who encountered this strange flatbread, ⠜more burned than cooked,⠝ either loved it or hated it. Gradually pizza spread to other parts of Italy and then, with the mass migration of Italians to the New World, it landed in the United States, where it enjoyed unprecedented success, invigorated by new ingredients, new recipes, and new tastes. Today, Americans are the biggest consumers of pizza in the world, at 13 kilos per head per year. The renowned culinary historian Luca Cesari retraces the story of pizza⠙s rise from the backstreets of Naples to a global industry now worth more than $200 billion a year. He describes how pizzas were made, the ingredients used, and the reactions of travelers, critics, and consumers. Richly illustrated with recipes from different times and places, The History of Pizza will transform your view of Italy⠙s most iconic food.

In 2022, left-wing former president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva won an unprecedented third term in Brazil, defeating far-right incumbent Jair Bolsonaro. While the return of the only working-class president in Brazilian history was celebrated by many, Bolsonaro supporters reacted by attacking the legislature, judiciary, and presidential palace. What explains this violent assault on Brazil s democratic institutions? Why did Lula, who first left office with an approval rating of almost 90 percent, provoke such vehement resistance from a supposedly patriotic mob? Through the intertwined stories of Lula and modern Brazil, historian Andre Pagliarini illuminates the country s journey over the last eighty years. He examines the processes that forged Lula, his Workers Party and the contours of the country s current predicament to show that the fight for Brazil s future is far from an historical anomaly. It is rooted in a history of democratic advance and backlash familiar to many pluralistic, multiracial democracies worldwide. Given the intense feelings Lula arouses across the political spectrum, his undeniable historical importance, and his re-election at a critical juncture for Brazil and the world, Lula s life and legacy offers a provocative prism through which to analyze the recent past, present, and contested future of Latin America s largest nation.
