Книга: Robert Siegel «White Whale»
WHALESONG introduced Hruna, a humpback whale, in an ecological parable of personal and spiritual growth. Now, in WHITE WHALE, meet Hruna&39;s son, Hralekana, and enter a deep sea world that dazzles and delights... Embarking on the Lonely Cruise, a yearling&39;s rite of passage, Hralekana experiences the adolescent&39;s fear and exhilaration as he sings the Song of the Open Sea. His adventures expose him to dangerous oil spills, frightening visions of the wreck of the Titanic, a kind and ecologically concerned human whom he befriends, and finally, a terrifying encounter with the dark side of humanity... From his carefree childhood to the dramatic challenges of his adulthood, Hralekana&39;s trials, triumphs, and laughter contain lessons on love, nature, and sacrifice, for him and for the rest of us.
