Synopsis
Miri thinks she has got her wife back, when Leah finally returns after a deep-sea mission that ended in catastrophe. It soon becomes clear, though, that Leah is not the same. Whatever happened in that vessel, whatever it was they were supposed to be studying before they were stranded on the ocean floor, Leah has brought part of it back with her, onto dry land and into their home.
Moving through something that only resembles normal life, Miri comes to realize that the life that they had before might be gone. Though Leah is still there, Miri can feel the woman she loves slipping from her grasp.
Our Wives Under The Sea is the debut novel from Julia Armfield, the critically acclaimed author of Salt Slow. It's a story of falling in love, loss, grief, and what life there is in the deep deep sea.
Review
Was a terrible idea to finish this book while at bus because I need to cry!!! If you need an emotional read you need need need to pick this up! Plus, the plot is also very intriguing though no straight answers were given even till the end, but that didn't affect my enjoyment at all.
If you like books with a lot of suspense, kind of weird plot and a beautiful love story, I will highly recommend Our Wives Under the Sea!
