The eyes of Albatross. Safina K.

In the very center of the huge ocean there is a secluded archipelago, who is reproduced by life. And there, as if in the country of birds, half a million chicks of albatrosses, each the size of a good goose, patiently waiting for their parents, who went in search of food and will return to them most likely only a few weeks later. In their possessions in their own rhythm, whales and sea turtles, sharks and petrels grow and multiply. Karl Safina tells us about this amazing place, and Amelia, a caring mother and an albatross with the most modern satellite transmitter on his back.

weaving a metaphorical with a real one, Safin harmoniously combines an artistic narrative with historical facts, and he serves him. adventures and action -packed turns. Together with Amelia, we move in time and space, meeting on the path of researchers and hunters - Charles Darwin, German Melville and James Cook - who were the first to penetrate the remote and impregnable edges of albatrosses. This subtle and authoritative narrative captivates the reader on a trip to the ends of the Earth, which will transform his view of the world and reveal the truth about the health of the ocean.
