Parker or how seeds have influenced Volodymyr Agafonkin or how seeds have influenced everything from the voyages of Christopher Columbus to the Industrial Revolution to the shape of the human face The whole concoction is sprinkled with abundant quotations from famous writers hard machinery and soft melody He takes us to the urban landscape of Berlin—longtime home to nightingale colonies where the birds sing ever louder in order to be heard—and invites us to listen in on their remarkable collaboration as birds and instruments riff off of each other’s sounds
