This Floating World is a songline of Ireland. The audience is guided through the landscape by an omnipotent force who listens in on the intimate soliloquies of people, ghosts, birds and animals. This Floating World unfolds over 24 hours and is dictated by the wind or rain, and is essentially a celebration of how we are connected to all things.

Review's of Libby Hart's "This Floating World"-

“It is simply a privilege to read this elegant and graceful collection.”
Judge's Report, Victorian Premier's Literary Awards

“... Hart's version of (Ireland) that seems entirely original. Her landscape is peopled by enigmatic loners, full of desire and suspicious of speech. Hart's pared-back diction, powerful metaphors and sense of atmosphere all combine to make this a gripping collection.”
David McCooey, The Age Book of the Year Awards
