A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR (NPR, The Washington Post, Lit Hub, The Telegraph, Goodreads, Tor.com, them, and more) “A deeply strange and haunting novel in the best possible way...An impressive and exciting debut novel that may leave you thinking about your own relationships in a new light.” —NPR “Shocking...Achingly poetic...Sharp and beautiful as coral polyps...Armfield exercises an exquisite—even sadistic—sense of suspense." —Ron Charles, The Washington Post Leah is changed. A marine biologist, she left for a routine expedition months earlier, only this time her submarine sank to the sea floor. When she finally surfaces and returns home, her wife Miri knows that something is wrong. Barely eating and lost in her thoughts, Leah rotates between rooms in their apartment, running the taps morning and night. Whatever happened in that vessel, whatever it was they were supposed to be studying before they were stranded, Leah has carried part of it with her, onto dry land and into their home. As Miri searches for answers, desperate to understand what happened below the water, she must face the possibility that the woman she loves is slipping from her grasp. By turns elegiac and furious, wry and heartbreaking, Our Wives Under the Sea is an exploration of the unknowable depths within each of us, and the love that compels us nevertheless toward one another.

A New York Times Bestseller! Don't chase fate. Let fate chase you. 'Clever, creative, and exquisitely written' Stephanie Garber For generations, deadly storms have ravaged Mina's homeland. Her people believe the Sea God, once their protector, now curse them with death and despair. To appease him, each year a maiden is thrown into the sea, in the hopes that one day the 'true bride' will be chosen and end the suffering. Many believe Shim Cheong - Mina's brother's beloved - to be the legendary true bride. But on the night Cheong is sacrificed, Mina's brother follows her, even knowing that to interfere is a death sentence. To save her brother, Mina throws herself into the water in Cheong's stead. Swept away to the Spirit Realm, a magical city of lesser gods and mythical beasts, Mina finds the Sea God, trapped in an enchanted sleep.

A joyful adventure combining the discovery of the sea, and one's self is found between the pages of this book. It all starts one day as we find our friend sitting by the water's edge. He sees the reflection of a tree and the sun in the water. The reflection makes it look as if the tree and the sun are under the sea. "How can this be? The sun and tree can not be under the sea," he asks himself. Then our friend ponders, What would I be if I lived Under the Sea? This is a hard question for our friend, so he starts his quest of wonder as he asks his classmates and teacher what they would be if they lived under the sea. His question is answered, as if by magic, when the people answering are transformed into different sea life. This is a colorful seal tale of both words and imagination that are meant to ignite the readers imagination and spark conversation with family, classroom, and between friends who wonder what it would be like if they lived under the sea. Professor J. Arthur even included a way that you can write to him and use your words, and/or pictures of what you would be if you lived under the sea? to let him know. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of all of Joe Arthur's writing go to: Associations of Zoos and Aquariums, Covenant House, Native American Right Funds, The NAACP, The USS Constitution Museum, and the World Wildlife Fund. * Teachers and Parents * This book was written as a springboard for a 'Know/Want to know/Learned' (KWL) exercise. In this exercise, when the reader imagines what they would be if they lived under the sea and tells the class what they know. Other students' curiosity's will develop as they ask questions about their classmates imagined sea creature. Then all may engage in a discussion about what they learned. This is a fun bonding experience that will also help to build positive interpersonal relationships and school skills. Professor Arthur's book is a wonderful way to ignite the imagination of our young people and inspire their involvement in this living environment that we all share. Once the student's imagination is lit, that fire cannot be put out. Another great tool to teach students about the seas is a visit to their local aquarium. It was Albert Einstein who said, "Imagination is more important than knowledge." May you grow strong, stay healthy, and be the miracle - please.
