Reviews"Georgina Key guides us through the sweeping sensorial landscape of Bolivar Peninsula on the Texas Gulf Coast during one of the deadliest weather events in living memory. Diving deep into the hearts and minds of her characters, we celebrate their private triumphs while mourning the profound losses that come with them. Lush and lyrical, Syllables of the Briny World is a gorgeous rendering of life, love, and loss." -E. Piotrowicz, author The Currach and the Corncrake and Mother of Wild Beasts "Beautifully immersive characterization and storytelling that swept me from page to page as the floodwaters rose." -Hannah Faoilean, author "A Schoolgirl's Swansong," Writing Magazine Shortlisted for Chimera Fantasy Novel Award "Georgina Key is a master of the deeply felt novel that can crack open your heart and move you to tears. Houses, humans, and animals are lost, but the wild wind and flooding waters eventually teach these wonderful characters what's really important-the brave connections we build with each other despite the possible heartache living in all moments of deep love." -Cynthia Williams, author "An Angel Serves a Small Breakfast," Tampa Review "Part mystery, part love story, part survival saga-with prose that sparkles like the Gulf itself, Georgina Key immerses us in a magical geography which exists between reality and fantasy, in the uncertain realm where ocean meets a sliver of land." -Catherine Vance, author The Mountains Under Her Feet "Syllables of the Briny World brings beautiful depth to the sense of place. From the majesty and terror of the ocean to the ethereal dimensions that overlay our very own, Georgina Key's words guide us to the ultimate being: our hearts. You come away knowing that our energies leave a most beautiful imprint behind, an imprint that forever connects us to one another." -Dawn Adams Cole, author It's Not the Same for Us and Drops of Cerulean "The pages are filled with tender and often spiritual questions about life and death and the way memory shapes our present and our future. Read to the end and be devastated by the sort of profound joy and solace that literature offers to our most pressing question of how we can learn to love each other despite our broken souls. Heartbreaking and heart-healing, this book is a tender reminder that deep love in all its crazy manifestations is all that matters." -Robin Reagler, award-winning poet Night Is This Anyway and Into The The
