This book is written as if it is for our times-of floods, fires and droughts. a timely reminder rendered in a gripping story. 

Her Death Was Also Water tells the story of seven people trying to survive on a small boat in a world completely transformed by an apocalyptic flood. Haunted by entwined pasts, the characters must voyage from a small Midwestern town through a world that seems increasingly fantastic. Each will face their past, and some will die, and the boat will even float through the miraculous, but only fifteen-year-old Charlotte will discover that death is not always death. Sometimes, it is also water.

Virginia Woolf’s stream of consciousness meets Yann Martel’s magical realism as a young woman discovers a sense of adventurous possibility in a world that has taken nearly everything from her.
