Description
Novel by Maryse Condé published in 2010. The metaphor of the “rising waters” refers both to environmental challenges and the migration crises shaking the Caribbean. The work follows several characters whose destinies cross between Central America, Mexico, and the Caribbean diaspora. Condé explores the themes of exile, borders, and the illusions of the American dream, in a prose where political fable and adventure novel intertwine.
