A new book of essays looks at the biodiversity of Cork's marine area from four different perspectives — and in four different languages.

Pathways, launching this Saturday with an event at Shandon's Living Commons garden, is described as "a multilingual collection of four essays that describe the experience of walking the route from Marina Market to Blackrock Castle".
