Why Fish Dont Exist a Story of Loss Love and the Hidden Order of Life Lulu Mille

by Lulu Miller

2021

This journalist's quest to understand a nineteenth-century ichthyologist’s obsession with cataloging the world’s fish becomes a profound meditation on loss and the nature of order. As she uncovers the scientist's attempts to impose structure on a chaotic existence—only to see his life's work repeatedly destroyed—she grapples with her own life's unraveling. It’s a deeply personal and intellectually rich exploration of how we find meaning and persevere when faced with inevitable destruction.
