Paperback. Condizione: New. In the 1990s, Gaia's family moves from the neglected peripheries of Rome to an idyllic lakeside town in search of a new life that will lift them out of poverty. Each of them bears their own scars: Gaia's mother is fiercely determined to secure a better future for her children at any cost; her father, a once proud man, now suffers in bitter silence after a devastating accident; her anarchist older brother rebels against the political apathy he sees at home; and her young twin brothers wordlessly bear witness to a family in decay.When Gaia meets two local girls, Agata and Carlotta, the trio builds a fragile friendship. Gaia's encounters with callous boys and contemptuous teachers convince her that she might always be an outsider-excluded from a privileged life and beyond the possibility of happiness. When tragedy strikes her friend group. As more friends slip away and her family fractures, Gaia vows to make the world pay for all the things it has denied her.Winner of the Campiello Prize, The Bitter Water of the Lake is an unflinching portrait of a generation, striving to make a place for themselves in a world markedly different from the one their parents promised them.…

Kirkus ReviewsMarked by aching realism, this volatile coming-of-age novel is about the precariousness of growing up. Foreword ReviewsRaw, radiant, and relentless Giulia Caminitos unforgettable novel ignites like a match struck in darkness, inviting readers into a world where beauty and brutality exist in perfect, devastating harmony. You wont just finish this book; youll emerge from it transformed. Achingly intimate and visceral. Chelsea Bieker, author of Madwoman and GodshotPowerfully evokes the lonely rage of being female, poor, young, bright, and powerless. Giulia Caminitos Gaia is a heroic antiheroine with flaming hair and an indomitable will, and this novel is a firecracker, illuminating as it colourfully explodes. Kate Christensen, PEN/Faulkner award-winning author of Welcome Home, StrangerA devastating, tender, utterly beautiful coming-of-age story. I am in awe of Caminitos writing, both unflinching and generous. Ayseguel Savas, author of The AnthropologistsAchingly stylish and emotionally resonant, The Lakes Water Is Never Sweet maps the razors edge between tenderness and violence, revealing how the wounds of social inequality can transform a young womans yearning for connection into something far more dangerous. This is a stunning and profoundly moving novel from an outrageously gifted writer. Kimberly King Parsons, author of We Were the UniverseBoth harsh and hypnotic, this deeply observed coming-of-age story hinges on two ideas: betrayal by others, betrayal of self. In a series of breathtaking and heartbreaking moments, we watch in what often feels like real time the awakening of a brave girl. Betsy Lerner, author of Shred SistersThe Bitter Water of the Lake is a striking coming-of-age novel that demands to be read. It is provocative, compelling, and darkly poetic, achieving a powerful and humane vision at the end. Gaia, the protagonist, struggles to reconcile her own needs with those of her forceful mother while navigating the often careless, often cruel world outside her home.
