Synopsis
Alisa Kelman, an outrageous and outspoken feminist in her sixties, returns to the city on the North Sea where she spent her a childhood summer and meets with her childhood friend and ex-husband Humphrey Clark, now a marine biologist concerned with the massive depopulation of the Earth's oceans. Here, in the cold north, the two find the heat and passion they have been missing their whole lives. A smart blend of satire, science, and sex, THE SEA LADY is a wise and funny novel, as shifting and mercurial as the sea itself.

Industry Reviews
"There are a few pleasures more mentally invigorating than astringently witty and wise satirical fiction. Drabble is a master of the form, creating audacious women characters of withering insight, and triumphant sensuality." (starred review)
(12/01/2006)
"THE SEA LADY, despite all its cumbersome digressions and interjections, achieves a clear convincing, transcendent moment at the end of the book....THE SEA LADY fascinates even as it annoys."
