Seven-tenths by James Hamilton-Paterson
A combination of a description of the sea and its boundaries in our imaginations with an appreciation of its mysteries. These include such special places as reefs and lagoons and such strange phenomena as islands that never existed and yet appear on maps.James Hamilton-Paterson is a British artist who lives and works in Italy. He is the author of many novels, including Loving Monsters and Gerontius, which won the Whitbread Best First Novel Award in 1989, as well as Seven-Tenths, a collection of essays about the lost majesty of the sea, and America's Boy, a study of Ferdinand Marcos and the Philippines. He's also a regular contributor to Granta and the author of two poetry collections.
