'An ode to the ocean, and the generations of women drawn to the
waves or left waiting on the shore' Guardian In Salt On Your
Tongue, Charlotte Runcie explores what the sea means to us, and
particularly what it has meant to women through the ages. In
mesmerising prose, she explores how the sea has inspired,
fascinated and terrified us, and how she herself fell in love with
the deep blue. This book is a walk on the beach with Turner, with
Shakespeare, with the Romantic Poets and shanty-singers. It's an
ode to our oceans - to the sailors who brave their treacherous
waters, to the women who lost their loved ones to the waves, to the
creatures that dwell in their depths, to beachcombers, swimmers,
seabirds and mermaids. Navigating through ancient Greek myths,
poetry, shipwrecks and Scottish folktales, Salt On Your Tongue is
about how the wild untameable waves can help us understand what it
means to be human.
