Oh wow, I loved this. 

Short, evocative chapters, with much left unsaid and unwritten. 

Incredible descriptions of scenery, powerful exploration of place and space. 

Coral reefs, conservation, living alongside the land, family, history, knowing what you want. 

Beautiful. Can’t wait to book club it.
