Song of the Sea Maid

Song of the Sea Maid | Rebecca Mascull

3 posts | 2 read | 8 to read

In the 18th century, Dawnay Price is an anomaly. An educated foundling, a woman of science in a time when such things are unheard-of, she overcomes her origins to become a natural philosopher. Against the conventions of the day, and to the alarm of her male contemporaries, she sets sail to Portugal to develop her theories. There she makes some startling discoveries - not only in an ancient cave whose secrets hint at a previously undiscovered civilisation, but also in her own heart. The siren call of science is powerful, but as war approaches she finds herself pulled in another direction by feelings she cannot control.

Song of the Sea Maid | Rebecca Mascull

I've lined up my next couple of books to read.

I think. Because there's always those that come along and distract me!

First up is One Good Thing. Others in the stack: Lear's Shadow, The Other Side of the Bridge and the tagged book on my Kobo.

This is my book club book for February and I am really glad someone picked this as I never would have! The story of a woman of science in the 18th century this story is a fascinating read and now I can't seem to help but notice articles and books about women in science everywhere! https://www.brainpickings.org/2016/12/26/mary-somerville-scientist/ This book would make a great pairing with Labgirl if you're doing Fic and NonFic reads!
