Join science journalist Sabrina Imbler on an astonishing journey which will completely redefine the way you think about nature and the ocean 'An astonishing debut' GUARDIAN ' Reveals just as much about our fascinating, mysterious world as it does about our fascinating, mysterious selves' NEW YORK TIMES In My Life in Sea Creatures we encounter: the mother octopus, starving herself while watching over her eggs; the yeti crab, thriving in crushing pressure and oppressive darkness; the cuttlefish, able to change its appearance in a fraction of a second; and many other creatures lurking in the depths of the ocean. Imbler's work weaves the wonders of marine biology with their own identity as a queer, non-binary mixed-race writer. They implicitly connect endangered sea life to marginalised human communities and shatter our preconceptions about the sea and what it means to survive. 'A miraculous, transcendental book ' ED YONG ' Profound, surprising and thrillingly strange. I love it' SY MONTGOMERY 'Astounding' PHILIP HOARE 'A revelation' ISABELLA TREE ***LA TIMES BOOK PRIZE WINNER***
