Description

This is an auction for WE ARE WATER by Wally Lamb.

“We are water: ‘fluid, flexible when we have to be. But strong and destructive, too.’ That’s evident in this emotionally involving new novel from the author of She’s Come Undone….Clear and sweetly flowing; highly recommended.” - a *** starred *** review in Library Journal (US)

“In his singularly perceptive voice, Lamb immerses his characters and the novel’s readers in powerful moments of hope and redemption and shocking descriptions of violence and abuse… fascinating.”

Minneapolis Star Tribune

“Wally Lamb’s fifth work of fiction…is a mesmerizing novel about a family in crisis that pulls together many characters and diverse themes and sets the bulk of its action against our collective modern angst and ambivalence.”

Miami Herald

"Hard to put down.”

Entertainment Weekly

“It’s a sign of a good novel when the reader slowly savours the final chapters, both eager to discover the ending and dreading saying goodbye to the characters. We Are Water is a book worth diving into.”

USA Today

“Alternating voices of the wife, husband and their three children pain a vivid portrait of a marriage and reveal the shifting meaning of family.”

Ms Magazine (US)

“Lamb excels at delivering unexpected blows to his characters, ratcheting up the suspense to the final page.”

Publishers Weekly (US)

“We all know that life is tangled and messy. Still, in reminding readers of this fact, Lamb turns in a satisfyingly grown-up story, elegantly written.”
