Don't we all want to talk to our pets? Well, Murray makes birds, cows, bats, and other favorites of the animal kingdom talk in this book of poetry about nature and animals. And he makes them do it with poetry.
How do animals "speak" in Murray's poetry? And why is their language "poetic" as opposed to "practical"?
What's the relationship between sound and meaning in these poems? How much importance does Murray give sound over sense?
