About this listen

We are all surrounded by darkness. And we are all drawn to the light.

The Orkney Islands north of Scotland are steeped in stories of selkies, seal folk who swim in cold ocean waters and shed their skins to sing and dance on land. One young girl named Isla uses legends of selkie brides to understand her parents’ troubled marriage and navigate her strained relationship with her mother. As Isla comes of age, she confronts the sacred points of transformation found between sea and land, nature and civilization, and past and present, uncovering the key to her identity.

Selkie Moon is a novella for all those who believe stories can illuminate the deepest and darkest waters of the human soul.

I listened to this audiobook in one sitting! Such an enchanting listen. I love how the narrator brought these characters to life. Also this book has a different take on the selkie legend! I would highly recommend!
