Of Sea is a book of 46 poems that celebrates the creatures that live beneath, beside and near the water – in wetlands, salt marshes and the intertidal zone. The poems are titled with the name of an invertebrate, followed by a poetic portrait of the creature in question. The author, Elizabeth-Jane Burnett, has been praised as one of the UK’s most original poets of the nonhuman world and the environmental moment.
