I have never read anything from a second person point of view, and I am so glad and honored to say Open Water was the first novel I read in this narrative voice. In just a little over 150 pages, Caleb Azumah Nelson immerses you in a story about love and race, with such a poetic and beautiful prose you will not be able to put this book down. An absolutely delightful read, imbued with pain and joy. A new favorite book of all time.
