A Treatise on Limnology
In development/in production.
What do lakes contain? Landscape fluctuations and dying languages, literary utopias, bygone eras that flow to the future. How to grasp them? By exploring, comparing, connecting, going under, sinking in. What do you call the study of lakes? Limnology.
