On this podcast of Faraway is Close: episode 1 of On the Island, a storypoem spoken and written by Shebana Coelho.
"On the Island, a boy called Riiaz stood in his rubber boots on the deck of the boat where he fished."
A curious storypoem about recovering the old songs that I wrote some years ago. I've never been able to define it and I kept hearing it. It felt like it needed to be spoken.
Oh and there are lobsters in the story too.
Riiaz is an island boy who, one day, stops fishing and throws the lobsters he has caught back into the sea; Zillahz is a lobster who take a stand against the might of men and nets, and her father Miryal is the great lobster of the deepening sea who transforms himself into a human to confront the village of men -all to save the old songs, the ones that save us.
This is the first episode. The second episode will arrive next week. Consider this my return to podcasting after some months of radio silence. This was really a lot of fun to record. There are a few melodies in in - flamenco, an Irish lament, a raga. I wrote it some years ago but speaking, listening, singing, humming, I feel I am rediscovering it. Re living it as something that has its own life.
I'll be glad to hear what your responses. Email me at info at shebanacoelho dot com. Shukriya. Gracias. ~ Shebana
