Each essay in their debut collection profiles one such creature: the mother octopus who starves herself while watching over her eggs, the Chinese sturgeon whose migration route has been decimated by pollution and dams, the bizarre Bobbitt worm (named after Lorena) and other uncanny creatures lurking in the deep ocean, far below where the light reaches. Imbler's debut weaves the wonders of marine biology with stories of their own family and coming of age, implicitly connecting endangered sea life to marginalised human communities and asking how they and we adapt, survive and care for each other."-- front dust jacket flap. 500 $a Published in the U.S. by Little, Brown with title: How far the light reaches : a life in ten sea creatures. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 244-263). 505 00 $t Us everlasting. $t My mother and the starving octopus -- $t My grandmother and the sturgeon -- $t How to draw a sperm whale -- $t Pure life -- $t Beware the sand striker -- $t Hybrids -- $t We swarm -- $t Morphing like a cuttlefish -- $t Us everlasting. 600 10 $a Imbler, Sabrina. 650 0 $a Journalists $z United States. 650 0 $a Marine organisms. 650 7 $a Journalists. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00984188 650 7 $a Marine organisms. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01009756 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Essays $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919922 655 7 $a Autobiographies $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919894 655 7 $a Non-binary people. $2 homoit 655 7 $a Essays. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781473581845 700 1 $a Ban, Simon, $d 1991- $e illustrator. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117024601.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DF87453A6CB211EE935F82A422ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
