    About this ebook

    In The Emma Press Anthology of the Sea, poets ask how the human mind can fathom the ocean’s depths. The sea emerges as at once strange and familiar, bearing witness to storms, naval history, ocean creatures and the human desire for freedom. As the poets embark on voyages of self-discovery, the sea laps at the boundaries of language, offering both mystery and solace to the reader.
