Sea Marked
-
A memoir of place, memory and motion, of seafarers, and the author's connections to them and the sea. Exploring coastlines from Scotland to Cornwall by boat and foot, she retraces the footsteps and paths of her ancestors across marshes, clifftops and waves. She travels in a 121-year-old sailboat and helps to build a community rowing boat. Gradually, she understands that the women in this story were the linchpins of the coastal communities they lived in - and the undertow of her own identity.
