Water and Glass
Water and Glass | Abi Curtis
1 post | 2 read | 1 to read
In the lower depths of a massive submarine, ship's zoologist Nerissa Crane takes an ultrasound of a heavily pregnant Asian elephant. The elephant conceived off-ship but, it transpires, was forced on board - along with Nerissa and a hastily assembled collection of humans and animals - by an apocalyptic environmental disaster that has flooded the earth. Nerissa is calm and solitary in her work and in navigating the trauma of her husband's presumed death in the floods; but when oneof her animal charges escapes, she is reluctantly forced to enter the ship's thrown-together communal world where she uncovers a shocking conspiracy that causes her to question who and what she is.

I enjoyed this! Water & Glass follows a scientist on a submarine in a near future setting where climate change has finally flooded most of the Earth. She looks after the animals onboard and uncovers secrets while we flash back to find out why she's there. Less sciencey than it sounds with a refreshingly simple writing style. This was a free review copy via LibraryThing, too!
