Rachel L. Carson
Under the Sea Wind is a classic wilderness adventure to which all nature writing is compared. The hero of Under the Sea Wind is soon seen to be life itself, that quicksilver prize granted, for a brief time only, to the clever and the fortunate.

Critic reviews
"Carson knows the names of species, calls parts of animals by their correct names, and brings behaviors as vividly to life as would a video sequence....Hébert draws listeners into the natural world with accurately produced animal sounds and a clear sense of wonder." ( Kliatt)
"Carson's peaceful prose is masterfully read in Hébert's velvet voice." ( Booklist)

We see the fragility of each creature's existence, but Carson's real story is the circle of life. So each creature's death provides sustenance for at least one other, and life itself continues.
Carson treats humans the same as other creatures, except that she never gives them names. They are part of the sea world, dependent on it and subject to its vagaries, just like its other parts.
