Mandy-Suzanne Wong does something far beyond 'giving voice' to animals and the artists that record them. She listens: quietly, carefully, truthfully. And the animals speak for themselves. Listen, we all bleed is a powerful and much needed book for our times. Now more than ever, we need to listen to the voices of all beings. And collectively, hopefully, we can save our beautiful Earth.--Kathryn Eddy

In this beautifully subtle, intricately woven text, Mandy-Suzanne Wong entreats you to listen, to really listen, to the nonhuman. And even if this listening makes you feel uncomfortable, ashamed, guilty, she dares you to persist. Moving seamlessly among the works of artists devoted to nonhuman voices, she manages to relay a myriad of worlds beyond our own, each with its own infinite complexity and beauty. Reading this book, hearing and loving the nonhuman, should prompt you to be passionate about saving this world that we have so thoroughly ravaged.--Tracy McDonald

Haunting, vivid, confrontational, unafraid--a new beat to penetrate our hearts and lead an awakening dance in which we stop refusing to see. Wong's descriptions call up Sue Coe in prose. To read about my own work this way--alchemized from sounds in the air and projections on walls and embroidered onto the page--is pure and powerful magic.--Colleen Plumb

LISTEN, WE ALL BLEED is both an informative and invigorating shock to the system...with striking and evocative prose...Wong's text compels the reader to brave the often ignored sounds of nonhumans and endure the raw emotion behind them. Whether the bleating sheep now turned leg of lamb or the symphonic wanderings of lost snails, in that moment the reader doesn't just listen--we become. As we hurt alongside the torment of nonhumans, Wong gently exposes our very hand in causing it. This book is a heart-wrenching albeit imperative rattling of the human soul. A must read for any Earth-goer.--Rich Andrew
