The Perfect Storm question

This book was quite an interesting book. Telling the tale of a middle aged man, having to leave his wife and go out into the open sea. With the wife having a hard enough time getting through the tough times without her husband, it seems as if nothing else is going right at home. As her husband is out on the sea they come across some very massive waves, and lots of big storms that lead to near death experiances. This book was by far, a very good book. It definitely kept me on my toes, making me wonder if he's going to survive the next storm, and how his wife is coping. It is also sort of a "tear-jerker," in the sense of being able to relate to this book. I highly recommend this book to any reader who is interested in suspense, some action, and a little romance.
