This fascinating essay collection walks global shores, looks to the sea and transcends the everyday. Beaches have shadows. They are places of tragedy, and hold back the unfathomable abyss of the ocean.Per Högselius skirts our history, shipwrecks and bodies, relics of war and vanished lives. He draws on his encounters with painters, writers and movie directors, from Casper David Frinedrich, to Mary Shelly and Spielberg. What results is a wondrous and haunting deep-dive into landscape and culture. Prepare for a haunting journey that leaves you fragile and shows you wonders.
