Sea Crow Press Announces: Distant Story Blue: A Family, a Boat, an Adventure at Sea

CAPE COD, Mass. - Oct. 30, 2024 - PRLog -- Sea Crow Press Announces Distant Story Blue by Magdalena Lousie Hirt. The book takes readers deep into the South Pacific, where they warn sailors not to go, as Magdalena Louise Hirt, with her husband and four children, venture to move their boat from Bora Bora to New Zealand.

Distant Story Blue takes readers along this journey with poetry, non-fiction, and fiction, interwoven, stretched, and pulled like the lines of a taunt sail. You will experience gentle nights of calm awe and terrifying nights of near-death. Her fiction will only give you escape from this into mythical history or a post-apocalyptic future. Magdalena's non-fiction will take you through the all-to-familiar life of a mom but squeezed into 49 feet with no escape. She will share her journals, and her moments on night shift alone in the dark in the middle of nowhere. Her prose will push you to the limits of sanity as the waves and wind build.
