By: Wally Lamb
Genre: fiction
Pages: 576

5 out of 5 stars
One of the many reasons I love Wally Lamb’s novels is his
ability to capture the woman’s voice. I
was truly amazed by this craft in his first novel, She Comes Undone and he succeeds again in We are Water. I feel this
novel is his darkest yet and the reader must have a tough skin to continue
through it. The story is extremely graphic at times and deals with numerous difficult
topics, such as child pornography and same sex marriages. However, Lamb writes in such a manner that
even with the visuals he creates you must read on to see the resolution. All the characters in this novel are very
vivid and I promise you will love some, despise others, sympathize with some
and change your mind on others. Lamb plays with your emotions throughout the
entire book. It’s been a long time
waiting for another masterpiece by Lamb and he did not disappoint.
