Product description

2023 andrew carnegie medal for excellence “there are fires that cannot be stopped above ground, air pollution alarms, unprecedented droughts, papers stuck in machines, teacher strikes, uprisings, revolutions, summers with record temperatures rising to unbearable levels, while below, in the pool, the temperature always remains at a sweet degree like twenty-seven. Swimmers are generally unfamiliar with each other, except for those in pool routines (slow, medium, and fast swimmers).

each one is there because they found their escape in furlongs. But with a crack appearing at the bottom of the pool, they are being dragged into a ruthless world where there is no comfort and peace.

one of the swimmers, alice, is slowly losing her memory.

for him, the pool was the last line of defense against the darkness of your insidious creeping dementia. As the mind, which quickly finds itself, escapes towards its childhood, the years spent in summer camps, the daughter, who was lost a long time ago, enters her present, albeit late. While witnessing the devastating progression of his mother's illness, he has to find his way in the fragmented land where their relationship is drying up and becoming desert. Mothers and daughters, grief and memories, love and the relentless spiral of loss – a poignant and unforgettable dream. A new otsuka novel is coming, so we can start living again. " -colsin whitehead "every decade, we are gifted an otsuka novel." This time, it starts like a catalog of written and unwritten rules in a swimming facility, and turns into a powerful story about a mother's dementia and her daughter's love for her. Even though otsuka won't be writing for many years, that's okay

this book should be enjoyed and read again and again.
