"Höouml;gselius's curious and nimble mind leads readers down a captivating path." - SHELF AWARENESS, starred review
A walk with Per Högselius, skirting shipwrecks and bodies, relics of war and vanished lives, is a deep-dive into landscape and culture. It leaves us fragile and shows us wonders.
Holidaymakers go to the beach to play. The world's great writers, film makers and artists head there to tread the margins between life and death. In Death on the Beach, Per Högselius leads us in their footsteps.
What do we find? Life-busting ideas, powerful landscapes, scenes to make you shiver, and an entry-gate to some of the most exciting books and films you've never heard of.
Translated from Swedish by award-winner Agnes Brooméeacute; (The Gospel of the Eels), this gripping essay collection reveals that longing inside us that continues to draw us to the sea - even when so many have failed to return.
