Miri, at a loss for what to do, spends hours on the phone trying in vain to reach Leah’s former employer. She rarely eats and is constantly in the bath listening to a sound machine. ![]() These women – Miri, and Leah – love one another, but since Leah’s return, silence has wormed “like a spine” into their life together.

The prize-winning author of the short story collection Salt Slow brings a tale of two female spouses, one of whom has just returned from a deep-sea mission gone wrong. I have not stopped dreaming of Our Wives Under the Sea since I finished it. ![]() ![]()
