Rosita
When people read my poetry, a popular question they have is, "Who is Rosita?" Rosita is a moniker I made for the person who inspired me to originally start writing poetry. In Spanish, rosita means little rose. Today, Rosita has become much more than an individual. If I were to give a name to my poetry as a whole or entirety, then I've named her Rosita. This poetry book focuses on various subjects such as love, creativity, equality, heartbreak, grief, and depression. I've had my fair share of experiences with each one of these subjects, and I hope these pages convey the knowledge and wisdom to readers that I have learned. So who is Rosita, you ask? Rosita is my muse, my dreams, my everything. And I hope she can be an inspiration to you as well.

Dona Rosita the Spinster
In Doña Rosita the Spinster, set in Granada around 1900, Lorca paints a sympathetic picture of a young girl as she waits in vain for her fiancé to return and her hopes of marriage fade. The fate of Rosita, symbolised by the rosa mutabile, which pales from red to pink to white in the course of a day, appears the more poignant as Lorca casts a satirical eye at the middle-class society of Granada by which she is surrounded. First performed in 1935, Doña Rosita was greeted as one of Lorca's finest achievements and it remains a classic work of Spanish theatre alongside Lorca's Blood Wedding, The House of Bernarda Alba and Yerma. This Student Edition features parallel English and Spanish texts of the play, together with a full commentary, questions and a bibliography. 'Doña Rosita is the most accessible and personal of all his plays - a wistful tragic-comedy of unfulfilled love' Guardian

Elsewhere
'Utterly engaging.' - Sunday Times From her first life-changing solo trip to Australia as a young graduate, Rosita Boland was enthralled by travel. In the last thirty years she has visited some of the most remote parts of the globe carrying little more than a battered rucksack and a diary. Documenting nine journeys from nine different moments in her life, Elsewhere reveals how exploring the world – and those we meet along the way – can dramatically shape the course of a person’s life. From death-defying bus journeys through Pakistan to witnessing the majestic icescapes of Antarctica to putting herself back together in Bali, Rosita experiences moments of profound joy and endures deep personal loss. In a series of jaw-dropping, illuminating and sometimes heart-breaking essays, Elsewhere is a book that celebrates the life well-travelled in all its messy and wondrous glory.
