And the Ocean Was Our Sky
Book Review
The book «And the Ocean Was Our Sky» by Patrick Ness has received positive reviews from critics for its unique interpretation of the classic story of Moby Dick. In this work, Ness turns the familiar world upside down, telling the story from the perspective of whales, which brings freshness and originality to the narrative. Critics note that Rovina Cai's illustrations in the book beautifully complement the text, creating atmosphere and enhancing emotional impact. Themes of war, hatred, and prejudice are explored through the lens of sea creatures, allowing readers to ponder the nature of conflict and humanity. Some reviewers highlight that the book may be challenging to grasp due to its symbolism and philosophical reflections, but this makes it particularly valuable for a more mature audience seeking depth and meaning in literature.
