Ugh this book made me feel like someone had been rummaging about in my brain. It's an incredible melting pot of history, myth, folktales and songs, poetry, memoir, and motherhood, all connected to the sea and with a heavy Scottish leaning - the book, not my brain (ᵇᵘᵗ ᵃˡˢᵒ ᵐʸ ᵇʳᵃᶦⁿ). Charlotte Runcie's writing is beautiful, resonant. Straight into my top five. I'll be reading this again soon, and I cannot wait for her to write more.
