Dive into the world of Tim Winton's acclaimed novel, Shallows, a compelling narrative that explores the dark colonial history of whaling in Australia. This gripping story centers around Queenie Cookson, a strong-willed protagonist who finds herself at the crossroads of tradition and environmental advocacy. With a family legacy steeped in the whaling industry, Queenie's passion for the majestic whales that grace her shores each winter ignites her internal battle when conservationists arrive to challenge the ruthless commerce of whaling.

Set in the hauntingly beautiful frontier town of Angelus, Shallows intricately weaves themes of loyalty, love for nature, and the moral dilemmas faced by communities entrenched in a controversial past. Recognized as a major work of Australian literature, this novel transcends mere historical fiction, offering readers a profound insight into the relationship between humanity and the natural world. Critics praise Winton for crafting a narrative that resonates deeply, with The Age calling it 'a profound and inspiring work of fiction' and Los Angeles Times noting its heart-pounding brilliance.

Reading Shallows is more than just engaging with a story; it’s an exploration of the ethical questions surrounding nature and industry, reminiscent of classic tales like Moby Dick. Whether you're an avid reader of environmental literature or seeking a poignant exploration of cultural identity, Shallows is a must-have addition to your collection.

Very helpful for Sjögren’s dry mouth.
Living with Sjögren’s, dry mouth is something I deal with every day, and these lozenges have been very helpful for comfort. They dissolve slowly and help my mouth feel more moisturized and less uncomfortable, especially during long days or when I’m talking a lot. They’re easy to use, have a pleasant taste, and are convenient to carry with me. I like having them as part of my daily routine to help manage dryness and feel more comfortable.

Clear and powerful analysis.
Format: Paperback
The three books in Bowlby's trilogy on Attachment, Separation and Loss need to be read a whole. Using the studies and case histories of children being separated from their mothers and important others, in a wide range of circumstances from separations of only a few minutes, through separations of several weeks on up to prolonged and permanent separation due to divorce and death, Bowlby outlines a new way of understanding neurosis, psychosis and optimal, healthy functioning. Using the lens of a Darwinian analysis, and the case histories written up by psychoanalysts spanning decades, he compares and contrasts his new theory with that of previous psychological thought, especially the psychoanalytic tradition. I found his analysis penetrating and illuminating. It sets the stage and formulates the hypotheses for further research. Much of that research has now taken place and has borne out Bowlby's theories. Not all of it, of course. Because Bowlby's attachment theory became and continues to be such a foundational analysis for so much that has followed in its wake, from evolutionary psychology to child development to psychotherapy, it is a must read for anyone interested in these and related fields.

A briliant book
Format: Paperback
This book is very neat in its specifics about the effects of absence when a mother is not in a child's life and the roles and effects of mother figures as well. Myself dealing with abandonment issues from my mom and my mother figure in my life, this book really assists in identifying the issues caused from the absent parent. Though the book doesn't offer any real advice as to deal with these problems that arise, it identify's the issues and allows you to further your research in progression. The writing style used can get rather complex though, be prepared for that. I agree with everything provided in this book and recommend it to anyone who's interested in either the psychological effects of absence of a parent, or seek to identify it themselves.
