Water Bodies considers what becomes endangered when we lose sight of the power of water.
“This book packs a narrative, poetic wallop. Having such fine and powerful voices gathered around a single subject makes the rain want to come.”
—CRAIG CHILDS, Tracing Time
The human experience has always been shaped by water, by its absence and its abundance. Now, as the climate crisis worsens, dry riverbeds and record floods remind us that water was never merely a resource to be managed or a commodity to be sold. It wields the power to reshape continents and capture our imaginations, a force as beguiling and as it is seductive. In Water Bodies, some of the West’s most thoughtful writers remind us why stories about water stretch back as far as we can remember: where we find water, we find ourselves.
