Description
A mesmerizing and revelatory novel, Sea Monsters is a smart and funny tale laced with strangeness. Chloe Aridjis's writing is brilliant, making her one of the most exciting novelists working in English today.
When 17-year-old Luisa fails to return home from school, she embarks on a quest to track down a troupe of Ukrainian dwarfs who have escaped a touring circus. Joined by a boy named Tomas, they head for Zipolite, a community known as the 'Beach of the Dead', where Luisa searches for someone who will remain a mystery.
As she wanders the shoreline, Luisa begins to discover that a quest is more easily envisioned than accomplished. With its richly imaginative and reflective prose, Sea Monsters is an entrancing novel that explores themes of identity, community, and the search for meaning.
