Book description
These eels were born in a continent of oceanand their parents carried into that vastnesson mindless, reliable, pot-luck currentsfrom Iceland, Belgium, Tunisia, Spain.'Steve's research of the eel's complex life history is reflected in this incredible long-form poem - anything shorter would not have done this fish justice.' Dr Matthew Gollock, Marine and Freshwater Senior Programme Manager, Zoological Society of London.The European Eel is a long poem that imagines the life cycle, ecological contexts and enigma of the charismatic and critically endangered fish of the poem's title. Based on Ely's in-depth engagement with the scientific literature, discussions with leading eel researchers and conservationists, and hands-on experience with the eel in river systems across the country and abroad, The European Eel is unique not only in its sustained birth-to-death focus on the eel, but in the vivid way the eel's riverine and marine habitats are evoked and articulated-and in its portrayal of the daunting array of anthropogenic threats that are currently threatening this once common species with extinction. Although a poem first and foremost-an Expressionistic epic monology that transforms its natural history into a quasi-gnostic affirmation of the persistence of life in the context of the Anthropocene and the Sixth Extinction-the poem's rootedness in research enables it to transcend its status as art to function as a credible piece of informed nature writing capable of shaping ecological debate. Seventeen pages of illustrations by the award-winning artist P.R. Ruby complement and interpret the text, and detailed notes provide context that further opens up the astonishing world of the European eel.
