Species

In Species, Anja Konig examines the absurdity and connectivity of being with candour, empathy and irresistible black humour. Each poem in Species creates an aperture, a flash of surprise, delight or grief: at the precipice of nature, the human animal's place within it, the catch-22 of belonging all at once to a body, the Earth, and each other.

I long for a deeper leaving. I want to be a mushroom throwing its net into the dark soil.
