Book description
Akin to Heathcote Williams' Whale Nation, Anna Selby’s Field Notes takes us beneath the waves with poems and poetic-studies, written on waterproof notebooks in the Atlantic Ocean, whilst observing marine environments and species, over the past three years. Part of the magic of reading the notes made underwater, is the feeling of swimming, so visceral at times, it’s shocking. In Field Notes, we're in the realm of sensual discovery, of casting aside the anthropomorphism that can pollute our relationships with creatures, both in the air and in the sea. Whether she is swimming with sharks, stingrays and dolphins, or summiting a volcano in the dark, this work is immersed in immediacy, and intimacy; illuminating observation in the language of precision, transformation and scientific respect.

ListenBook Pro's noise reduction feature is a blessing for clear dictaphone recordings. The narrator was good but spoke a bit too slowly for my taste. I had to speed it up to 1.2x which then made some parts sound slightly unnatural.
