Thirsty Sea

"Thirsty Sea displays Mou's flair for smartly subversive and musical prose, highly original characters and distinctive metaphors." Anna Katharina Schaffner, The Times Literary Supplement "Thirsty Sea continues a tradition of simultaneously confessional and elliptical writing by women that streches from Sylvia Plath's The Bell Jar to the fourth-wall busting, televisual crise de coeur Fleabag."; Laura Allsop;"Thirsty Sea is a deep dive into the female psyche. It is also a linguist's paradise." The Publishing Post;"Thirsty Sea is a total triumph of cognizance, a haunting presence in its own right." Asymptote;"A poetic, rhythmic and powerful tale of guilt, Thirsty Sea is a magnificient, compelling debut." Nataliya Deleva, author of Arrival;"Mou joins the ranks of contemporary female authors unafraid to delve into the uncomfortable and unsettling... a visceral exploration of trauma, relationships, family, grief and healing" Lunate
