I was able to stomach the outdated depictions of whale behavior and the dull, unlikable human characters, but between the sudden rape scene and the depictions of Seaworld as a happy, magical place where humans and cetaceans get along, I had no desire to finish this book.
The only aspect of this that saved it from a one-star review was the lovely writing, at least the writing involving the old sperm whale's perspective. Like I said before, it's an incredibly outdated depiction, but it at least felt authentic.
