โฆ Synopsis
When you are alone, adrift and displaced, how do you find yourself?
Set on a small Scottish island, The Water All Around Us is a poignant novel about loneliness, roots and belonging.
Recently arrived, crofters' child, Fenn, is troubled by being different and not fitting in. Incomer and marathon swimmer, Jess, is running away from personal tragedy. A young whale, separated from his pod, swims in the wrong direction and embarks on an arduous, heart-breaking journey. All three are at home in the water, but when their lives connect in the sea that fringes the white-sand beaches, their paths converge and collide with disastrous consequences.
Under the surface of this thought-provoking novel are messages, carried quietly and bravely by the whale, about the damage we are doing to our oceans.
