Priscilla Lee's Beneath The Surface

Priscilla Lee's "Beneath the Surface" is a poem talk about the barracuda fish that is found in tropical oceans. This journal will take a look at this poem from an ecocriticism theory point of view. In "Beneath the Surface" nature plays a major role in the poem due to the fact it the landscape can be manipulated. The landscaped cannot be manipulated or change completely due to the fact the barracuda fish is the main character. The barracuda fish is a saltwater animal and needs a tropical environment to survive. If the landscape was changed into a river or frost the barracuda fish could no longer be the main focus because it could not live in that environment.
Humans are affecting nature by catching the barracuda fish. Nature is affecting humans
