Shameful Silence
Break the silence surrounding male victims of domestic abuse and challenge harmful stereotypes Society has a blind spot — and one in three men are paying the price. Millions of men experience domestic abuse. Yet their suffering is routinely dismissed, minimized, or outright denied. Trapped by shame, stigma, and cultural myths about masculinity, they endure abuse in silence. Often, they lack the language to describe their experiences and face systems unwilling to protect them. In Shameful Silence, Human Rights attorney Alexandra Lozano exposes the hidden epidemic of male domestic abuse. With unflinching honesty, legal precision, and deep compassion, Lozano draws on sixteen years of frontline experience to advocate for vulnerable individuals in complex legal systems. She reveals a vital truth few confront: abuse can devastate without leaving bruises. Through survivor accounts and rigorous research, this book reveals sophisticated, often invisible tactics used against men, including gaslighting, financial control, parental alienation, false allegations, and using custody battles and immigration status as weapons. These abuses leave no visible scars yet dismantle identity, isolate victims, and destroy lives. Blending legal insight, psychological research, and deeply human storytelling, Shameful Silence challenges entrenched stereotypes about victimhood and masculinity. Lozano reframes strength not as silence but as truth. She offers readers clarity and validation that so many male survivors have never received. In this book, readers will discover: First-hand accounts from male survivors that illuminate emotional, psychological, financial, and physical abuse patterns often ignored or mischaracterizedExpert analysis of systemic failures within law enforcement, family courts, and healthcare systems that leave male victims unprotectedPractical guidance for recognizing abuse, setting boundaries, seeking support, and beginning the healing processResources and organizations specifically equipped to support male survivors of domestic violence. How to advocate for specific reforms—whether by contacting lawmakers, supporting organizations for male survivors, or challenging bias in their professional spheres—to ensure protection and equity for all victims. Shameful Silence is essential reading for male survivors seeking validation and a way forward. It is also vital for legal, healthcare, and education professionals, as well as social workers and advocates seeking deeper insight into non-physical abuse and institutional blind spots. This book expands our definition of abuse and challenges societal beliefs. It offers a blueprint for a world where every survivor is seen, heard, and protected.

Dream Logic
Last night I dreamt I was Emily BronteI was hanging linen on the line, washed the old-fashioned way ... Lost moments and memories provide a window onto a time before the present, a place where the past is full and vivid yet never quite within reach. This is a search for something missing but unknown, a farewell without being certain it is goodbye. Satya Bosman sets out on a journey through myth and relationships, interior lives and everyday moments, carrying an alluring feeling of connection that lingers on the edge of the senses as we ask - is this where I belong? Full of longing, Dream Logic opens the space between loss and renewal, where the idea of what might have been weaves through real memory, and becomes just as powerful. *Praise for Satya Bosman* ‘[Satya Bosman] brings to this debutthe assurance of a poet attuned to nuance and silence … Lyrical yetgrounded, Dream Logic invites readers to linger in the spaces betweenthings — where absence hums with meaning, and where the boundaries between thereal and the remembered dissolve into something tender, uncertain, and true’ – The Madrid Review 'Funny and odd and charming ... This felt alive, it carried me along and left me wanting more' - Ella Frears, judge of the Kent & Sussex Poetry Society Annual Folio Competition 2025 on her prize-winning entry About the Author:Satya Bosman is the founder and co-editor of the Black Cat Poetry Press. She has been featured in several publications including 14 Magazine, Acropolis Journal, The Lake, Porridge Magazine and The Storms Journal.

Reloaded – The Good, The Bad & The Rugby
THE HIGHS. THE HEARTBREAKS. THE HANGOVERS. THE PERSONAL. THE VULNERABLE. THE DOWNRIGHT ABSURD. IT'S TIME TO RELOAD. The rugby boys are back – and this time, it’s personal. Alex, Mike, and Hask return with their second book, ready to tackle everything from rugby highs and lows, to the absurdities of everyday life. As was widely predicted, our first book, The Good, The Bad & The Rugby – Unleashed, did not win a Pulitzer Prize. It did, however, scoop Sports Entertainment Book of the Year at the 2025 Charles Tyrwhitt Sports Book Awards (and sold quite a lot of copies), so here we are again, back for a sequel. What more have we to say? It’s a fair question. Hask can mine more new material from a trip to the supermarket than most people can from an entire lifetime – and you won’t be surprised to learn that he hasn’t just been hanging around Asda since our last book came out. He recently turned 40, he’s been through much personal turmoil, he’s done an awful lot of DJing – and he’s had a lot of arguments. Expect much of that, and even some thoughts on rugby, in the following pages. As for Tins, you’ll find out about his early days in rugby, how he had to fight to make it, what he thinks of the state of the game, and his plans to get it back on track. Meanwhile, Alex will tell you all about his career in broadcasting, from making (‘disgusting’) tea and coffee, and presenting some of the greatest rugby matches in history, to getting binned by Sky. We should end by begging you to pardon our previous flippancy. It was, of course, lovely to win that award, as well as very surprising. In fact, The Good, The Bad & The Rugby will never stop surprising us, and its continuing success is largely down to you – our wonderful listeners, viewers and now readers. We do hope you enjoy what follows and that you keep coming back for more. Winners of the Charles Tyrwhitt Sports Book Awards 2025 Sports Entertainment Book of the Year, for their previous book The Good, The Bad and The Rugby – Unleashed.
