itibaren Militello in Val di Catania
Very disappointed. Not funny.
A kindred spirit who also grew up in Pittsburgh and managed to escape to live her dream of being by the sea. Her natural history opus that brought the mysteries of the ocean to millions of non-scientists. Fun to read a science journal cira-1950 and hear Carson mention a new "theory" of plate tectonics.
While the writing is nothing specials, the theme and plot are quite intriguing. It didn't grip me the way I thought if would ( I had Harry Potteresque expectations) but I definitely got into this novel.
