The Acoustic Envelope

Norwegian title: Den akustiske konvolutt

Vaillot Knudsen is a playful and original poet. Linguistic exploration and musicality characterizes this collection, taking place in the interaction between a You and a Me. Around them both we find an envelope, both physical and mental, that makes the communication hard. The Me is poisoned – far into the emotions. Even scientific components get a different sound in this text.
