Yeah, very much.
But it has been disrupted.
So this is a woman whose working life had been as a marine biologist.
She felt most comfortable in the sea.
She sort of feels uncomfortable in her body and it's a body that's changing.
She's at menopause and she feels like her waist is thickening, her skin is changing and that she's sort of slightly lumbered down by the air and by gravity.
So she longs for this water.
But a doctor has said to her,
You can't get under the sea.
You shouldn't put your head under.
It's too dangerous for you to dive.
So, you know, this is a woman in crisis in relation to the sea, isn't she?
And that they operate in the world in different ways.
I mean, in a sort of Shakespearean sense, he's a practical person.
He knows how to fix things.
He's very much of the earth.
And she's drawn to this, you know, moving fluid world and to watching the seals and to being aware of...
caverns at the end of the ocean.
But, you know, as Rowena said, it becomes strange and it's something that Chris Neen is very good at in their writing, which is drawing attention to the strange and making us think about the world in a slightly different way.
And the uncanny.
