With a passion for community organising, trans erotics and well-structured meal plans, max p castle explores the mythic, mundane and monstrous shadows of living with an eating disorder in their debut poetry collection, Speculative eating.

An unconventional journey through madness and metaphor, the collection interrogates the carcerality of psychiatric treatment and the transformative potential of collective healing, crafting a lyrical demand for a world where we can all nourish ourselves.

None of us are free until all of us are free #4 available at IRL Infoshop open hours tomorrow Wednesday 16/09/27 3-6pm!

Kyle Zammit on None of us are free, until all of us are free #3

Hey Hey Anne-Lise!
How am I!? I’m effing TERRIFIC!!!

- I’m Kyle Zammit. I’m a 21 year old autist with far too much energy. I dance and jump around and no one can stop me.
- My involvement with the publication consisted of copying out a story of mine and mailing it off. I traded a chilli tuna can for the envelope. Turned out to be a good trade.
- Getting Peephole Pusher’s Price published means that a piece of myself has escaped prison. My words are now floating around out there in the real world. It validates my existence. It’s easy to forget that you’re an active player in this game called life when you’re incarcerated.
- Poems from the inside 3 is ultimately important not just for prisoners, but for everyone. Being imprisoned is a nail file to your humanity. Walking laps in the yard under razor wire, sooner or later the walls go from something that keeps you in, to a barrier that keeps you out. Inmates are systematically alienated from society and community. No wonder so many re-offend. They’re aliens! But lend them a hand, pull them up so they can see out over the walls, if you hear what they have to say, they won’t be alienated anymore. If people inside feel connected to people outside, they’ll come out feeling human, not alien.
- I didn’t write Peephole Pusher’s Price with any specific messages in mind, the way it came out spells out one thing plainly: prison is heck.
- I might get parole this October! If I do, I am going to self-publish a short story collection called Mirror Pyramid. All the fiction I have written whilst in prison, and the digital version of the book will be free! I’m aiming to become a professional author! And my writing has improved a hundredfold in the 14 months since Peephole Pusher Price!
- Thank-you to those that care. You make a difference with every letter and phone call. You make a difference by even just speaking of inmates as people and not just criminals. Thank-you Thank-you and good day. Kyle Zammit.

None of us are free until all of us are free #4 is a book of poems and stories from people currently or recently incarcerated.

At Incendium Radical Library we are interested in challenging the prison nation (including policing), which is used to further the colonial project and to oppress those most marginalised. We believe incarceration creates trauma through violence and further dehumanises people. We hold a thinking that storytelling can open dialogue; promoting compassion and building solidarity and community.

None of us are free until all of us are free #4 includes poems and stories written by Gabrielle Pine, Brittany McCulloch, Freckles, Jesse Parish, Alexandra P, Rossco, Chris Phillips, Paul Gower, Zachary Hunt, Maximillian, Leo, Anon and Anon.

Artwork Resting Jaguar by Javi Fuego.
Artwork A World Without Prisons Looks Like by Freckles.

This project was created on the stolen land of the Wurundjeri peoples of the Kulin Nation. Sovereignty was never ceded.

The book is published under Incendium Radical Library Press.

All profits from this project are supporting Prison Solidarity Projects.

Pick up available from Fairfield VIC 3078 or IRL Infoshop (at Catalyst Social Centre), please write PICKUP in Discount Code for free shipping and email [email protected] to work this out.
