Belinda Zhawi
Writer and sound artist Belinda Zhawi describes life as a southern African plains Zebra, in a series where writers imagine life as an animal of their choice.
In our world of dissolving distinctions, five contemporary writers imagine life as an animal of their choice and investigate the boundaries between animal and human - each with the help from different animal experts. In this edition, writer and sound artist Belinda Zhawi imagines life as a southern African plains Zebra.
In other editions of the series Toby Litt is the brown hare at the outskirts of a wood, Sarah Kosar at the edge of a London park is a soprano pipistrelle bat, Ned Beauman makes dams with the Devon beaver and poet Isabel Galleymore clings to the side of a rock pool as a limpet.
Producers Kate Bland and Toby Withers.
