Caught Stealing: New York, Crimes, Baseball, and Cat
The trainwreck is hot but tame.
Lucia Joyce & Flappers
The dancer who almost vanished from history — brought back in a storm of dreams and rebellion. Lucia Joyce, the brilliant but forgotten daughter of James Joyce, moves through a world that refuses to let her be free. Lucia Joyce & Flappers is not a simple retelling of her life — it’s a radical resurrection. In a hypnotic blend of memory, fantasy, and historical imagination, Małga Kubiak reclaims Lucia’s voice, her body, and her fierce, uncontainable spirit.
