74 reviewsWritten with assurance and grace, plangent with foreboding and a taut sense of inexorability, The Weight Of Water is a powerfully compelling tale of passion, a provocative and disturbing meditation on the nature of love which takes us on an unforgettable journey through the furthest extremes of emotion.
"Enthralling… an object lesson in how to unravel a complicated plot" - Anita Brookner
The question is posed by Jean, a photographer, who arrives on Smuttynose Island, off the coast of New Hampshire, to research a century-old crime. As she immerses herself in the details of the case - an outburst of passion that resulted in the deaths of two women - Jean herself enters precarious emotional territory. The suspicion that her husband is having an affair burgeons into jealousy and distrust, and ultimately propels Jean to the verge of actions she had not known herself capable of - actions with horrific consequences.
"Compelling and beautifully written... the strength of the book lies in the exquisite handling of the metaphor of the sea - constant but shifting, all surface but all depth: and in particular the dangerous emotional currents that in both stories collide forcibly to make disaster inevitable." - Lynne Truss, The Times UK
With the skill of a master shipbuilder, Anita Shreve carefully fits her two stories together, tacking back and forth between the increasingly twisted murder mystery and the escalating tensions unleashed by the threat of a dangerous shipboard romance.
