Description
Richard O'Brien's The Dolphin House is a surreal and sinister poetry collection that explores the darker side of interspecies communication. In this unique project, a NASA-funded research team attempts to teach a dolphin English in a flooded apartment.
O'Brien's poetry playfully showcases the absurdity of the endeavour, while also revealing its disturbing undertones. With virtuosic command of language, he unravels the dubious designs behind human attempts at interspecies communication.
