Show transcript
The title implies that Antrobus’ intention is to encourage the reader to forge a connection with nature.
Arguably, the modern, urban world is presented as isolating.
In contrast, we might see nature as being full of life and connections.
Antrobus is a d/Deaf poet and the use of sound implies that silence can be enriching in certain circumstances.
Antrobus often explores themes of communication, connection, and cultural inheritance.
