Overview

New Short Story Collection The Land Between the Waters Unites Climate Crisis, Family Secrets, and a Seismic Twist of Fate New York, NY - A bold and sweeping literary debut, The Land Between the Waters plunges readers into a rich tapestry of interconnected lives set between the pulse of New York City and the quiet turbulence of Claryville, NY. With evocative prose and razor-sharp irony, the novel follows five disparate families drawn together by chance, catastrophe, and the mounting pressures of ecological collapse. At the heart of the story are unforgettable characters: a French restaurateur with an obsession for foie gras, a prize-winning pie maker harboring a haunting secret, and a string of mysterious visitors who disrupt the serenity of a swimming hole. When a seismic event rocks both the Catskills and the city, these lives converge in unexpected ways.Blending elements of magical realism with ecological science, The Land Between the Waters spans epochs-from the five great extinctions to the present-day cultural tremors beneath a Buddhist monastery built atop a hidden natural gas dome. This haunting, satirical, and timely novel captures the urgency of a planet in flux while celebrating the fragile threads of human connection that endure. The Land Between the Waters is more than a story-it's a vision of survival, adaptation, and the surprising beauty that emerges from disruption.
