- More about Salt the Water
Cerulean and her friends plan to keep their heads down in class, save money, and get out of the Bronx after graduating. She is convinced that there must be somewhere better than the Bronx and is focused on learning how to grow and make food to be self-sufficient.
Format: Hardback
Length: 288 pages
Publication date: 03 October 2023
Publisher: Dutton Books for Young Readers
Cerulean and their friends embarked on their senior year, the first year of normal school after the pandemic. Their plan was straightforward: keep their heads down in class, save money, and escape the Bronx as soon as they graduated. They believed that if teachers forced them to read Huckleberry Finn, they couldn't blame the kids for leaving for the territory. Cerulean was determined to find a better place than the Bronx and focused on learning how to grow and make food to ensure their self-sufficiency when they finally made their break. However, their journey was disrupted by burnt-out teachers and their father's workplace accident, throwing Cerulean off course. Despite the challenges, Bronx babies are resilient and resourceful, and Salt the Water ultimately presents a radically hopeful vision of life beyond mere survival.
