The Helix Pearl The Story of the Wine-Dark Garrulous Sea - Kate-Pearl Stories, #3 - E-book - ePub

"Ruth Finnegan is a master of words." Asher Syed, Reader's Favorite A deeply felt emotive  love story  of  desperation, fear, and daring in fearsome sea waves, both a book in its own right, and  a companion to Finnegan's  prize-winning first novel 'The  Black Inked Pearl". But this time the perspective  - and the story - are  different, for it is narrated, uniquely, by  the garrulous, sounding, wine-dark Sea.
she shows us  a girl, an ordinary  Donegal girl, fearful of the sea - the kindly, tempestuous,  unpredictable sea - who yet conquers her terror and SWIMS  through the hurricane waves to find her love and save the world. Weaving poetic imagery with immersive storytelling, you'll join Kate on her familiar journey recounted in The Black-Inked Pearl and Pearl of the Seas - yet uncover new depths that make this a starkly different journey - part spiritual parable, part coming-of-age romance, and part a celebration of the beauty of the English language.
Readers have described the tale as "a beautiful story of love, faith, adventure, and mystery" and "ambitious, beautiful, and powerful enough to get you lost in its pages for hours on end." Engaging and emotional, The Helix Pearl's deft and dreamlike prose has led to comparisons with the works of James Joyce, William Faulkner, and the epic majesty of Homer's iconic Odyssey.
