Sometimes an Island

A Mosaic Novel of Family Ties, Climate Upheaval, and Resilience

 

by Ellen Meeropol

When the only bridge to the mainland washes away, one family must decide what — and who — they're willing to save.

 A haunting, beautifully written novel about isolation, climate change, and the fragile ties between people and the land they call home. Perfect for readers of Barbara Kingsolver and Lily King.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ *"Gorgeous and immersive."
