It took two goes for this novel to connect with me, but once it did, oh my! Power through the first chapter, suddenly everything will click and you are on a remarkable journey. Sitting here in the parched Western US the story had particular resonance, but “Properties of Thirst” will strike the heart of any human being. A remarkable book.

Thanks to the publisher and Edelweiss for the opportunity to read this extraordinary book.
