About

A flash fiction novel, The Sea-Wave details the aftermath of the kidnapping by an elderly and emotionally damaged man of a severely disabled, wheelchair-bound, unusually bright, depressive 12-year-old girl incapable of speech. The novel consists of the girl's entries in her diary-like memorandum book, entries which relate her own, surprising thoughts on her kidnapping, family, and disabilities, in addition to her verbatim transcriptions of the old man's monologues, which appear to reveal, in fragments, the details of a very specific and unusual period in his life.

Reviews

"The Sea-Wave functions as a wunderkammer, inviting the reader to open it and gaze at everything inside. It is in this kind of reading that the great strengths of the book shine. Unlike, say, a thriller whose pleasures and secrets are over as soon as the last page turns, The Sea-Wave is, like its namesake, a thing outside time to be enjoyed again and again."
