"the halfdrowned is a vision of a future at the end of the world where what survives is the shapeshifting love of family both given and chosen. Drawing on the Afrodiasporic ancestral knowledge of water and the urgency of desire, Delaney builds a glittering, speculative world where community holds through grief, where we must choose to fend for ourselves while also caring for others. the halfdrowned is a genrebending novella that crafts a polyphony of voices to speak to and through our lives and dreams in order to reach for the unspoken and unsayable and make it heard. Praise A forceful, surreal, and poetically muscular read about a resiliently catastrophic future. So so good. What a style and voice." Jeff VanderMeer, author of AREA X (Farrar, Straus and Giroux)Told with searing insight and compassion, Trynne Delaney offers up a feast in the halfdrowned. With swiftness, precision, and extraordinary prose Delaney gifts us an astonishing specfic tale of ancestors, lineage, aliens, blood, and memory. Francesca Ekwuyasi, author of Butter Honey Pig Bread (Arsenal Pulp Press)
