An emotional exploration of motherhood, marriage, transformation, and letting go, Shark Heart is an unforgettable love story that examines what it truly means to be human. For Lewis and Wren, their first year of marriage is also their last. A few weeks after their wedding, Lewis receives a rare diagnosis. Hes turning into a great white shark, and has less than a year left to live as a human. At first, Wren resists her husbands fate. Is there a way for them to be together after Lewis fully transforms? But as Lewis changes, day by day, Wren begins to make peace with the inevitable. After all, this isnt the first time shes lost a loved one. An extraordinary novel of love, loss, hope and happiness, Shark Heart explores the shapes that love takes, in all its many forms, and asks us to ask ourselves: what makes us human? Compelling, moving, lyrical - Claire North, author of Ithaca and The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August. Review. A beautifully written, heart-wringing story about love and change, about moving forward-as a shark always must -and what is lost and what is gained as we do so.
