A Most Anticipated Book ( The Guardian, Good Housekeeping, BookRiot, Bustle, LitHub, Electric Literature, Goodreads, Autostraddle, SheReads, GeeklyInc, Stylist ) "Sublimely gorgeous...Readers are treated to a stunning love story about a couple trying to make sense of their new unfamiliar situation, while also learning about what happened to Leah on the ocean floor. It''s pretty much perfect ." --Liberty Hardy, BookRiot " A love story like no other ...Armfield''s fantastic first novel is about the pockets of unknowability that pop up in even the longest intimacies, how marriage, like the ocean, is full of ''the teeth it keeps half-hidden.''" --Electric Literature " Captivating and at times heartbreaking." --SheReads "A moody and intimate debut novel, both a portrait of a marriage and a subtle horror fantasy...With echoes of Jules Verne, Thor Heyerdahl, H.P. Lovecraft, and the film Altered States , Armfield anchors the shudder-producing tale in authentic marine science and a deep understanding of human nature. This is mesmerizing ." -- Publishers Weekly ( starred review ) "What happens to a marriage when one spouse is no longer the person you married?...Launching her book with epigraphs from both Moby-Dick and Jaws , Armfield guides the reader through the liminal spaces in the couple''s lives and approaches them with an occasionally ironic humor. The bleakest horror story can also be a love story ; Armfield deftly illustrates how." -- Kirkus ( starred review ) (starred review)"Without a doubt, Our Wives Under the Sea is one of the best books I''ve ever read . It''s not only art, it''s a perfect miracle. We are lucky for it." --Kristen Arnett, author of With Teeth and Mostly Dead Things "A wonderful novel, deeply romantic and fabulously strange.

Thrilling, funny and exquisitely crafted , this book will make you question everything while it keeps you up all night turning its pages." --Danielle Lazarin, author of Back Talk "A strange, unnerving novel that wrongfoots you at every turn and invites you to think again about loss, absence, and transformation. A lyrically written elegy ." --Neel Mukherjee, author of The Lives of Others "Tender, strange, lucid, and so assured. If you love sci-fi or love stories or books that defy labels or chew-your-arm-off good writing , this is for you." --Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Mercies "Spooky and romantic: a gorgeous novel that gets under your skin.

A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR (NPR, The Washington Post , Lit Hub, The Telegraph , Goodreads, Tor.com, them, and more) "A deeply strange and haunting novel in the best possible way...An impressive and exciting debut novel that may leave you thinking about your own relationships in a new light." --NPR "Shocking...Achingly poetic...Sharp and beautiful as coral polyps...Armfield exercises an exquisite--even sadistic--sense of suspense." --Ron Charles, The Washington Post Leah is changed. A marine biologist, she left for a routine expedition months earlier, only this time her submarine sank to the sea floor. When she finally surfaces and returns home, her wife Miri knows that something is wrong. Barely eating and lost in her thoughts, Leah rotates between rooms in their apartment, running the taps morning and night. Whatever happened in that vessel, whatever it was they were supposed to be studying before they were stranded, Leah has carried part of it with her, onto dry land and into their home. As Miri searches for answers, desperate to understand what happened below the water, she must face the possibility that the woman she loves is slipping from her grasp. By turns elegiac and furious, wry and heartbreaking, Our Wives Under the Sea is an exploration of the unknowable depths within each of us, and the love that compels us nevertheless toward one another., A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR (NPR, The Washington Post , Lit Hub, The Telegraph , Goodreads, Tor.com, them, and more) A FINALIST for the LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD and GOODREADS CHOICE AWARD "A deeply strange and haunting novel in the best possible way...An impressive and exciting debut novel that may leave you thinking about your own relationships in a new light." --NPR "Shocking...Achingly poetic...Sharp and beautiful as coral polyps...Armfield exercises an exquisite--even sadistic--sense of suspense." --Ron Charles, The Washington Post Leah is changed.
