Nothing But The Rain

TORDOTCOM

A sleepy little town discovers its memories have become part of the water cycle.

The rain in Aloisville is never-ending, and no one can remember when it started. There’s not much they can remember. With every drop that hits their skin, a bit of memory is washed away. Stay too long in the wet, and you’ll lose everything you used to be.

By the time Laverne Gordon, a sixtysomething retired doctor, begins keeping a journal, the small town she calls home has been irreparably changed. With mysterious forces preventing escape, calls for rebellion seem to be on every resident’s lips. But Laverne doesn’t believe in rebellion. She just wants to survive.

Cover for Nothing But The Rain: the angle of a bare room with peeling wallpaper and a flooded floor. The title is written on the wall. The blurb quote by Alix E. Harrow says: "Nothing But The Rain is a small and perfect apocalypse. Bleak, spare, and beautiful."
