LONDON, UK. December 13th, 2024 - Esteemed British Actor and Acclaimed Film Producer Mem Ferda takes a profound step into the literary world by releasing his first poetry anthology, 'HAPPYAGONY – A Collection of Poems by Mem Ferda'.
The action star, known for his captivating performances in films like Pusher, Plastic, Revolver and The Devil's Double, now channels his artistic expression into a new medium, unveiling a poetry collection that explores the essence of human experience with unfiltered emotion and insights.
From a tumultuous life filled with dramatic extremes, Ferda's poetry touches on universal themes such as youth, wealth, society, love, and grief. The anthology emerged after a devastating fall off rocks at Pevensey Bay during a photoshoot in 2023. The severity of the fall necessitated immediate surgical intervention on both of Mem’s legs. Following a year of intensive physiotherapy, Mem regained the ability to ambulate; however, physical therapy remains ongoing.
Mem unveiled his poetic talent with the publication of HAPPYAGONY, a collection of poems showcasing his literary skill and offering a glimpse into his healing journey. Drawing from the highs and lows of his dynamic life, Ferda's work in poetry is as compelling and impactful as his acting, inviting readers to explore the depths of human emotion and resilience.
HAPPYAGONY promises to engage readers with its range of feelings, from raw and gritty to inspiring and vivid, reflecting the intensity of the Actor's experiences. The collection comprises fifty poems accompanied by beautiful illustrations, each a testament to Ferda's journey toward healing and his embrace of poetry as a form of catharsis.
HAPPYAGONY is more than just a poetry book—it's an intimate look at a man who has continually transformed personal adversity into creative expression.
HAPPYAGONY—A Collection of Poems by Mem Ferda is now available on Amazon in paperback, hardback, Kindle, and audiobook formats. In its first week of release, it shot to the number one position in Amazon's 'hot new releases'. It is also available worldwide at major bookstores such as Waterstones, WHSmith, Foyles, and Barnes & Noble.
