30 years after Disney's The Little Mermaid movie
was released, it's time for a feminist reimagining for a new
generation.
"A masterpiece" Marian Keyes
"A fierce torrent of a book, raging and forceful and
gripping. I was swept away" Kiran Millwood Hargrave
"Her prose cuts and rages and her vision of the Sea
Witch is truly transformative" The Observer.
Think you know the story of the Little Mermaid? Think again...
Deep beneath the sea, off the cold Irish coast, Gaia is a young
mermaid who dreams of freedom from her controlling father. On her
first swim to the surface, she is drawn towards a human boy. She
longs to join his carefree world, but how much will she have to
sacrifice?
What will it take for the little mermaid to find her voice?
Hans Christian Andersen's original fairy tale is reimagined through
a searing feminist lens, with the stunning, scalpel-sharp
writing and world building that has won Louise her legions of devoted
fans.
A book with the darkest of undercurrents, full of rage and rallying
cries: storytelling at its most spellbinding.
