Abstract
Tumult Blossoms is a collection of original poetry that examines the formation of identity and the factors that determine it. Identity itself is treated as a fluid entity and explored in various guises, from that of the individual to that of a nation or species, with special emphasis placed on both migration and evolution. Within this exploration, close scrutiny is also granted to the relationship between human beings and their environment.
