Japanese Design by Sarah Lonsdale

'They say she is something different from every creature . . . I've known men that wouldn't go near her to kill her, and men that would cross themselves looking at the dead body of her. But myself and my father were close to them all our lives. And I myself have handled them alive and dead.'

A magical world emerges, in which men are rescued by seals in stormy seas, take seal-women for their wives and have their children suckled by seal-mothers. Mysterious and fascinating, timeless and haunting, Thomson's beautiful prose is rich in rewards and surprises.

The People of the Sea is a classic retelling of the selchie or seal-people story, a cornerstone of Celtic folklore. Thomson's extraordinary book is celebrated for bringing to life these enchanting stories and exquisite creatures.
