Back to Earth, a collection of slowness, delves into time immemorial and the shared history of humans and animals. In these "animal self-portraits," the poet Stéphane Picher transforms himself into both tortoise and bird to explore the human and animal condition and what binds them at their deepest level.
Traversing the phylogenetic tree of life by way of poetry, Stéphane Picher offers us a profound reflection on our relationship to otherness within the living world.
A collection of origins, haunted by the cellular memory of an aquatic, mineral, and aerial evolution, Back to Earth is a contemplative and powerful text, in search of that "something" that connects us to all living things and makes us the smallest part of a greater whole.
