Lobster Dreams is a wonderfully original and unexpectedly profound novel, written with both scientific authority and literary flair by esteemed oceanographer Stephen Spotte. At its heart is Sonny, a young man who undergoes a surreal metamorphosis into a lobster-a transformation that becomes the gateway to an immersive deep-sea world. The novel is rich with fascinating detail about lobster biology and behavior, from larvahood and molting to eating, mating, and fighting, all presented with humor and insight. Lobster Dreams is a smart, funny, and esoteric meditation on identity, transformation, and what it means to be human-or lobster!
