This was the Booksmiths book club read for January. It’s almost a dystopian type novel, set somewhere in the future in an unspecified country. Every day there is relentless rain so that buildings are flooded, people dying constantly on the news snippets. You are never told why, but presumably the effect of climate change. It follows three sisters, whose mother left them from a young age, and then whose father raised them, someone who they are all terrified and in awe of in equal measure. Personally, I wasn’t a huge fan of the story and found it all quite weird. However, I was away for the book club meeting, and would have liked to discuss it as there were a lot of interesting things to delve into.
