Griffith Review 71: Remaking the Balance contributors Chris Flynn, Sophie Cunningham and Nardi Simpson join GR editor Ashley Hay to talk rupture and resources: animal, vegetable, mineral, and more. What happens when a penguin’s speech transcends anthropomorphism; when our capacities for hope are exercised like muscles; when trade is transformed into a generous exchange? How might these ideas–and more–change what we do with what we have?
