Sea Peach - Halocynthia Auranthium (Paperback, illustrated edition)

Sea Peach, the highly-anticipated new collaboration between Catherine Kidd and Jack Beetz, features a collection of interlinked pieces which constitute a bonsai performance version of Kidd's novel Missing the Ark. The stories and poems focus on themes of memory and zoo animals, chickens and global warming, a giant leech that sucks up the whole world, and a gentler creature, the Sea Peach, who might inspire humans to restore the world to itself. Through voice, image, sound and text this CD/book recreates these performances. A lovely package, Sea Peach can sit on either your CD rack or your bookshelf.The CD is produced by Wired on Words .Winner of the MECCA 2003 for Best New Text Voted Best Spoken Word Artist in Montreal Mirror
