against the backdrop of two cataclysmicnaturalevents When six-year-oldMarissa loses her mother,she is taken byher father to live on a small Thai island in the Andaman Sea. There,sheforms a deep friendship with Arielle andtogether they explore the fragile wonders of itsforests,reefs, and beaches. Holding their breath for minutes at a time, they learn to dive into the deep, as effortlessly synchronized as the manta rays they come to know by name.Then, on Boxing Day 2004, when the Indian Ocean tsunami makes landfall, they are swept up by the first wave and separated. Eight years later,Marissa is livingin New York. Shespends her days wandering through the city and her nights seeking solace in the beds of strangers. As the city prepares for a devastating storm, Marissa reflects on her past and learns how to sustain herself in a precarious world. Under Water is a story about friendship and grief, but also ecological change and natural disasters. It is a meditation on loss, a tribute to our dying oceans and forests, and a love letter to the disappearing coral reefs. ‘The horrors of 2004 are told with verve in this debut about a woman haunted by survivor guilt . . . there are stunning descriptions of island wildlife . . . Tara Menon tells the story with confidence and style’ Sunday Times ____ Readers love Under Water ‘A beautiful read. Haunting and visceral and profound, magical and tragic, but mostly very, very well written’ ‘I loved it’ ‘This is writing of the highest order and it will reward focussed reading. Definitely one of this year's best reads so far’ ‘Highly, highly recommended’ ‘Beautiful and devastating’ ‘I loved this, even though it made me cry!’ ‘The best books change my perception, bring something I thought I knew into a different light. This is one of those’
