Overview
SOUNDING takes us into the extraordinary mind and emotions of the magnificent sperm whale, an aging bull roaming the waters of the Atlantic. Troubled and separated from his herd, the whale wants to fulfill his one obsessive desire -- to communicate with the human race and learn why they can be both vicious hunters and frolicking playmates. Far away, on a doomed Russian nuclear submarine, Lieutenant Peter Rostov, the sonar officer and a classical musician, is spending what he's sure are his last days listening to the beautiful "sounding" of the whale. In the amazing climax to this unique novel, man and whale come together -- and a magnificent destiny is fulfilled. "Searls is remarkably eloquent. . . . you'll stand up and cheer." -- The Washington Post Book World
