Hex The Patriarchy: An Adult Colouring Book For Depressed Witches

Illustrated through the Melbourne lockdowns of 2021 this NSFW, feminist, colouring book features illustrations of mandalas and affirming statements.

Designed to support mental health, this colouring book is dedicated to “the girls, the gays, the them’s and the they’s, the women, the witches, the babes and the b*tches, and those of us who would once have been burned at the stake just for living our truth in the world.”

This colouring book contains adult imagery and is not suitable for children.

Virago: A Poetic Manifesto

Both a collection of poetry and a queer, feminist, manifesto; Virago is the second poetry book by Fleassy Malay.

Fleassy beautifully navigates the complex and nuanced landscape that is both the deeply personal and the innately political experience of being a woman.

As a collection of poetry, it offers a reflective and vulnerable insight into love, sex, mental health, grief and motherhood. As a manifesto, it is a fierce call to action for women, a reclamation of courage and vulnerability as strength, and a beacon of light in the darkness of a system that often forgets and silences so many.

Sex and God

A collection of poems which touch on the devotional, the erotic and the grey areas around and in between. This book offers the reader a tender insight into the author’s sexual and spiritual life, whilst also offering up the musings of her curious and delicate heart. Fleassy Malay is renowned as a powerful Spoken Word poet and this book gives a gorgeous opportunity to witness more of her page focused works, many have not been recited or previously published elsewhere. This book contains adult content.  

Bodhicatva - A Children's Book

Bodhicatva is a simple yet touching story of a cat who smiles. It teaches the readers about deep inner peace and love, the kind of joy which goes beyond the external situation and shines on through no matter what we are faced with. This book is aimed at 0-4 years olds but is a sweet simple read for people of all ages. In Buddhist traditions a Bodhisattva is a being who through deep compassion has reached enlightenment for the benefit of all human beings. It is also said that it is a being who when reaching enlightenment chose not to ascend but to stay in this realm for the sole purpose of teaching the path. So Bodhicatva is a Bodhisattva … in the form of a cat.
