Join Tilly, Judith, and Ash as they dive into the June theme, Under the Sea, from a literary perspective. They discuss how this watery theme lends itself to fiction and non-fiction, reflect briefly on their book club pick Mudlarking by Lara Maiklem, and share their own favourite reads inspired by the sea.

Highlights include Judith’s pick The Mermaid of Black Conch by Monique Roffey, Ash’s Whispers of the Deep by Emma Hamm, and Tilly’s Seafaring Lore and Legend by Peter D. Jeans—three very different takes on underwater stories and myths!
