Produktbeschreibung
Between a dying ocean and a divided world, a mermaid must grapple between the sea that made her and the surface that might break her -- in this stunning novel-in-verse. Muireann is a mermaid - fierce, curious and proud of the body that keeps her warm beneath the waves. But life in the ocean is becoming impossible. The merfolk are at war with the human ramifications of climate change: food is scarce, and her twin sister has been killed in a mass-fishing net. With her mother lost in grief and her world falling apart, Muireann longs to escape to the surface to find some answers. But the human world isn't the haven she hoped for. It's colder, crueller - and here, her large body is seen not as strength, but as something to be ashamed of. In this beautiful novel in verse, Muireann must find her voice and fight for where she belongs - whether that be beneath the waves, or above them.
