Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Breakwater is a timely and lyrical novel exploring themes of climate change, motherhood, and resilience. As floodwaters surge in South Florida and millions evacuate, Carey Marilla, a middle school music teacher, learns she's pregnant. Though the waters are undeniably rising, Carey and her world-weary mother resist departure, alongside their aging yard man and a runaway student. Together, the unlikely family navigates the coming months of slow devastation and radical change while Carey grapples with the psychological trials of pregnancy. Meanwhile, blue herons, silver mullet, and sly alligators reclaim the drowned city streets. Rain, indifferent and dazzling as ever, dances blithely among the telephone poles.
