Relative to Wind: On Sailing, Craft, and Community

內容簡介

內容簡介 A lingering, long-haul collection of writing about sailing for readers of Julietta Singh and Kyo Maclear.In Relative to Wind, Phoebe Wang delivers a poetic rendering of her decade-long journey of learning to sail and a deep dive into what it means to be a newcomer to an old tradition. From working along-side crewmates in tempestuous conditions to becoming an avid racer and organizer to drafting a wistful love letter to a Wayfarer dinghy--while examining the loose tether between sailing and a creative life--Wang delivers a book for sailors and would-be sailors that is thoughtful and surprising at every tack."A thoughtful, illuminating look at life away from land."--Kirkus
