In The Fragile Edge, the documentary filmmaker and deep-sea diver
Julia Whitty paints a mesmerizing, scientifically rich portrait of
teeming coral reefs and sea life in the South Pacific. She takes us
literally beneath the surface of the usual travel narrative, in an
underwater equivalent of an African big-game safari. Hammerhead
sharks rule a cascading chain of extraordinary creatures, from
eagle rays to reef sharks, as the sound of courting humpback whales
reverberates through the deep.
Inspiring for both armchair and expert divers, The Fragile Edge
reveals how science can extend our understanding of unfathomable
waters, opening our eyes to the threats facing coral reefs and
explaining why these fragile oases are vital to human survival. In
this passionate, spiritual narrative of her adventures in the big
blue, Julia Whitty emerges as one of our finest writers on the
mystery, beauty, and fragility of the undersea world.
