Book
How far the light reaches : a life in ten sea creatures / Sabrina Imbler ; with illustrations by Simon Ban.
"Part memoir and part study of the intricacies of the ocean, this exploration invites readers to imagine alternative ways of living. In a book that is much more than an account of deep-sea creatures, journalist Imbler compellingly examines the parallels between the lives and priorities of people and aquatic animals. The author's ability to locate connections across seemingly disparate topics--e.g., their experience with sexual assault and the life of a 10-foot-long worm called a sand striker--is both unique and engaging." --provided by publisher.
