nIf we were able to listen under water, what would we hear? What would we learn? How would it change us? n nWith erudition and charm, marine scientist and orator Bill François takes us on a deep dive into the secret lives of the worlds aquatic creatures, from musical whales and immortal eels to the cod that discovered America and the herring that almost caused a military conflict --to name but a few. We hear the songs of seahorses and scallops, eavesdrop on the conversations of lobsters, and swim in the glow of the fluorescent jellyfish. n nA poetic blend of ancient myths, modern science, and storytelling through the ages, Eloquence of the Sardine is an invitation and guide to a dreamlike underwater world where the legends are often more believable than the incredible reality. n nThis is nature writing at its best --informative, captivating, and accessible, with a personal angle, about an endlessly fascinating and still mysterious subject. n nA seafood platter or a day at the beach will never be the same.n
