Deep, devious and always dangerous. For those who do science on the sea
(and those who just like a good read) Granta’s latest collection of short
stories offers an imaginative voyage into the oceans. But those who write about
the sea could learn a thing or two from the scientists. The editor, Ian Jack,
asks who can predict El Niño. Well, quite a lot of people as it happens.
The Sea, Granta 61, £7.99, ISBN 0903141167.
