So, you've read The Hare with Amber Eyes by Edmund de Waal? Let's sigh together in deep happiness for the joy of uncovering, layer by layer, the story of his family and their collection of netsuke.

I have no idea what to read next.

I demand that the universe deliver me one of these. It will make me patient while waiting for my pygmy giraffe.

I'm always surprised by people who find that title confusing. Is it because many people have no sense of how long a league is? If he'd called it 69,024 Miles Under the Sea would it be less confusing?

I think it's a combination of an unfamiliar unit of measure and the choice of phrasing. In general when someone says, "X units of distance under the seas", people's first thought is depth. That title probably the ONLY instance I've ever heard of using "under the sea" to mean "lateral distance traveled while under the sea."

If it were "70,000 Miles Under the Sea" I still think there'd be confusion. It would be as persistent but it would be of the form, "Huh? That doesn't make sense the sea isn't that deep...oh, wait, does he mean 70,000 Miles WHILE under the Sea?"
