Profound loss brought Victoria Whitworth to the frigid seas near the Orkney Islands. Embracing the intensity of life in the midst of pain, she committed herself to the ocean's wildness by ritualistically swimming year-round in the often shiver-inducing waters. Swimming with Seals is a beautifully transformative memoir, woven with folklore, history, and myths of the archipelago, that ebbs and flows between hurt and healing, freedom and confinement, life and death. To join Victoria and the magnificent creatures with whom she swims and floats is a gift.
