Chasing Cicadas – Anisa George

Amid the cacophony of a cicada emergence, our final narrated essay
on the theme of Initiation follows a movement into new rhythms and
patterns of becoming. While immersed in a unified chorus of insect
voices, playwright and director Anisa George reflects on her
departure from the Bahá’í faith and its promise of a new
civilization, choosing instead to embark on her own path. Sounds
provided by David Rothenberg. Emergence Magazine, Vol 3: Living
with the Unknown explores what living in an apocalyptic reality
looks like through four themes: Initiation, Ashes, Roots, and
Futures. Every two months we’ll release a new chapter online.
