This is a poetic, magical-realism-ish, beautifully written take on the classic end-of-the-world story. I love the sparseness and "separated" aspect- how everyone's names are just their first initials (R, Z, O, etc.)- and the big details about what is actually happening to the world are not at the forefront. All we really know is that the world has flooded and people are being displaced. I loved this new take on such an old genre and I anticipate future writings from Megan Hunter.
