'I loved this exploration of the ways that sound lands in female bodies. Alice Vincent is on song' - KATHERINE MAY 'In Hark, Alice Vincent sets out to explore how sound can be restorative, and whether listening more deeply might help us reconnect to ourselves and others' - Independent (Best Books to look out for in 2025) 'Immersing myself in the beautiful, deeply thoughtful pages of Hark has a profound effect on me. Reading it has been an incredibly emotional experience, and has made me look at, and listen to, my own world in bright new ways. This book is a quiet yet profound kind of miracle' - CLOVER STROUD 'A beautiful book, which left me thinking deeply and intimately about my own sonically-charged life. Hark will make you feel more alert to sound, silence and everything in-between and will leave you more curious about what it means to listen and be listened to' - AMY KEY, author of Arrangements in Blue 'Hark not only made me cry, it opened my ears to new kinds of understanding. Gorgeously written, truly sensuous, gut-wrenchingly powerful, heartfelt and real, this is a deeply important book, alive and tuned in to the beautiful cacophony of the world. Hark is Alice Vincent's best book yet' - CHARLOTTE RUNCIE 'As I was reading, I kept thinking of people I wanted to recommend this book to. A wonderful book about becoming a mother but also about being more than a mother - full of surprises' - ROWAN HISAYO BUCHANAN 'Unique, profound and joyfully intellectual' - SUNYI DEAN.
