About this book
A tree falls in the forest and I am/ there to make sure no one hears it./Beloved: It's not that I am/unwilling to be seized by sound, / everyday I am undone by it.
Khando Langri
Our poets and authors were given the theme of Movement. They have intepreted this in many ways: movement as communication and connection, mobility, and stillness, being moved emotionally, movement within and after Lockdown, freedom of movement, and being part of a political movement.
Poems, short fiction and scripts from UK Deaf, deaf and hard of hearing writers. Our theme is movement.
