Description
Everyone knows that the oceans are full of treasures and hidden dangers--with Sylvain Rivière we discover twenty-six of them. With the sail set to cruising, Ah! pour Atlantique explores the myths of Ulysses and Neptune, kayak and yacht voyages, the threat presently posed by green crabs and multiple other aspects of the marine trades. All sails set, Rivière's verses resonate like a foghorn, illustrated by the talented Réjean Roy. These marine terms offer a special passage into francophone America--its dreamscapes and majestic views, a wellspring of treasures and adventures firmly anchored in our Maritime vocabulary.
