Annotation

The novel is in the form of an incomplete diary from 2045 to 2066 describing the depletion of water on Earth, the attempts to control the weather to produce rain, bedeviled by corporal and nationalist disputes, the movement of people, plants, and animals north, and the way Earth revolts. It is framed by, at the beginning, an epilogue from 125 AW (After Water) and a chapter that introduces the blue, four-armed reader of the diary, and, at the end, a chapter of explanation of what happened after the diary ends.
