À propos de cet ebook
Sex, death, nature and the ‘feminine’: an autofiction romance in four acts.
Your Body of Water is an interweaving of autofiction with hydro-feminist mythologies, exploring via the emotional landscapes of four rivers and four “tragic feminine characters” (Ophelia, Leda, the Lady of Shalott and Sappho) the author's own real life journey, with a dose of tongue-in-cheek humour – through coming out in Australia, an abusive relationship in Berlin, and navigating queer love in the context of a world literally burning around us – and finding hope for the future in the stories of her ancestors before her.
