About this listen

The New York Times best-selling author’s memoir of diving in the Caribbean offers “in precise, lucid, prose, the marvels of the sea bottom” (New Yorker).

Author Stephen Harrigan spent months diving on the coral reefs of Grand Turk Island in the Caribbean. In this evocative account, he describes his many explorations, both personal and natural. Though he is there to learn about the history of the coral reef, Harrigan freely admits that his true motivation is to become, at least for a time, his “underwater self”.

The book is published by University of Texas Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks.

Critic reviews

“Moving, intelligent and, in the best sense, literary.” (The New York Times Book Review)

"Fellow divers will relish his camaraderie, while those who prefer staying topside will feel as though they've taken the plunge themselves." (Booklist)
