The Deep by Rivers Solomon
4.0
The Deep— I do not know how to describe this book. This novella is unique, and I remember exactly how I felt while reading it and after the fact. I have never read anything like this, and I don’t mean that in a negative sense. This small book comes with a pretty significant impact.
This book centers on water-dwelling creatures descended from pregnant enslaved people thrown onboard. It’s a reimagining of the future from the scars of the past—an incredible story about collective memory, trauma, and community. I won’t say much about the plot because I genuinely feel like this is something to experience firsthand.
I highly recommend this book.
