Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: In this wonderfully wide-ranging volume, Vartan Messier and Nandita Batra have given us a fine collection of maritime riches. From reflections on the ocean as metaphor to shark documentaries and Jaws, from Hemingwayâs organic ecology to Melvilleâs tropic-birds and the establishment of a Puerto Rican maritime preserve, This Watery World reminds us thatâonshore and inlandâwe are all in the grip of our images and interactions with the sea. When I put this book down I was reminded of the Hyderabadi poet Sarojini Naidu: âThe sea is our mother, the cloud is our brother, the waves are our comrades all.â âProfessor Ashton Nichols, editor of Romantic Natural Histories and author of The Poetics of Epiphany and The Revolutionary âIâÂ
