Revealing, funny, intimate, and honest.

I really enjoyed Project Recycle! Okay, more specifically, I really enjoyed its style, its humour, its intimacy.

Listening felt a little like listening in on the reading of a personal diary, or on one of the therapy session[s] to which the author/narrator refers at the outset. Interestingly, that which Williams discloses is at once both very personal and in many ways universally recognisable and I think in being so makes this work that much more accessible..

Project Recycle is a young woman’s journey - a journey of sexual exploration and of new experiences. As a listener, we are invited to join her on that journey. The narrative is delivered at a good pace and the story is filled with moments of honesty, intimacy, and humour. What's more, its pithy, monologue style captivates.

Project Recycle may or may not be autobiographical, but therein lies its strength – it’s very believable. The story is real, it’s visceral. As I listened, I couldn’t help but feel that the author was not only telling me her story but was also using the platform as a means of working through, and making sense of, her own emotional/sexual experiences. Intentional or not, it works and in a post-modern twist there is a kind of double therapy session at work – the one to which the author refers in the text, and the one that exists between narrator and listener.

Project Recycle resonates no matter your sexual orientation. It’s believable and immediately accessible, hooking you from the get-go!
