In Eloquent Body, medical doctor and award-winning writer Dawn Garisch explores the science and poetry of the body, investigating what we can trust. She suggests developing a partnership with oneself, including not abusing the very earth we inhabit. In an engaging manner, Eloquent Body offers a quiet wisdom in response to the instinctual need to find out who we are and why we are here, and how creative practice can help us manage our lives.

“A richly eclectic, deeply insightful text that draws art and science, poetry and medicine, writing and healing into fertile conversation.” – Ivan Vladislavic
