Braiding memoir with embodied climate science, MY OCEANS is an urgent exploration of caring and mothering on a planet in crisis. Rivera's investigative questions begin with the toxic burden of her body and spiral out—to a grieving orca, a hunted manta ray, a pregnant sea turtle, a spawning salmon, an "endling" porpoise, and the "mother culture" of sperm whales. For fans of Rachel Carson, Terry Tempest Williams, and anyone who feels themself disintegrate in the presence of the sea.
