The Deep Green Sea - A Hauntingly Illustrated Literary Journey Through Myth and Memory.
A poetic odyssey that drifts between dream and reality, The Deep Green Sea is an illustrated surrealist novella that immerses readers in the ebb and flow of longing, isolation, and self-discovery. With 50 original illustrations, this book is more than a story, it is an experience, a work of art, a spiritual adventure set deep in the southern Antipodes, written in the metaphoric language of fairytale.
Away in faraway future, a Mirage of women exist secluded on an Islet by the deep green sea. They live beyond the veil of customary sight, where starry floors of watery shores glow bright and shimmering. The Mirage's only vocation is in the preservation of ancient dialogues between living creatures and the sacred world.
This is the story of two Acolytes:
Orla, who battles storm and sorrow to reach the Isle's hallowed sanctuary, and
Roe, a Selkie born into the Mirage, who begins to question her place among the Isle's priestesses.
A Luminous, hand-illustrated journey into literary magical realism.
A lyrical meditation on isolation, belonging, and the wild beauty of soul transformation.
For lovers of mythic fiction, spiritual fables, and sea stories.

"Surreal and Magical. Your book pulls me in and out of the present and I fall into your drawings as if I am inside the dream. Your words flow like water or a steady beating drum. And all colour evaporates, it's just 'chiaroscuro', contrasting light and shadows. It's like being asleep and being woken with a phrase or command that suddenly causes you to remember.... Everything! It's beautiful."
