Series A Body of Essays: Series 3

The Eyes

The Essay

Available for over a year

In the third series of a Body of Essays, five writers explore different bodily organs, some held in the dark, suctioned interior of our bodies. With help from clinicians and scientists, each writer learns about the organs bodily function before setting down their own sense and experience of their chosen organ. Today, poet Abi Curtis considers how our eyes both connect us to and alienate us from the world.
