I really enjoyed this read! I don't read a ton of nonfiction, especially not of this type, but it really drew me in. I found the prose to be beautiful and atmospheric, and the explorations of gender, body, and water were all fascinating to me. Lars did a fantastic job of drawing the reader in to their experiences, with every moment feeling so vivid and lived-in for me. I personally really liked the incorporation of historical and mythological tidbits throughout; while I can see these as getting a bit dense for some, I enjoyed learning about all of these past events and moments in history and connecting them to Lars' experiences. A very interesting look at gender and fish!
