Description

This debut collection invites us to envision a wilder, grander world, where the wonders of marine biology meet the author's own stories of family, relationships, and coming of age. Sabrina Imbler's essays profile extraordinary creatures, from the selfless mother octopus to the resilient Chinese sturgeon, and explore the radical models of family, community, and care that can be found in the sea.

Through her writing, Imbler discovers that the sea holds not only the secrets of adaptation and survival, but also the keys to understanding our own relationships and the world around us. With each essay, she weaves together the wonders of marine biology with her own stories, creating a shimmering, otherworldly narrative that attunes us to new visions of our world and its miracles.

How Far the Light Reaches is a captivating exploration of the natural world, one that will resonate with anyone who has ever been drawn to the mystery of life in the sea.
