Now in its tenth year, Great Ocean Quarterly is an ardent love letter to the sea: a meditation in words and images upon what it means to cross the margin from our terrestrial world into a realm of beauty and wonder.

For their ninth issue, the publishers - Jock Serong, Mark Willett and Boom exhibitor Mick Sowry - are celebrating the Great Southern Reef: in journalism, fiction, poetry, science, photography, painting and music. Like vinyl for your eyes, this is a beautiful production designed to be kept and treasured.
