About this book

An underground pool offers a community of swimmers relief from the pressures of life above the water. Among them is Alice, a retired lab technician whose growing memory difficulties recede while she swims. A collective voice describes the regulars and their routines in Julie Otsuka's novel, showing the sense of identity they find within the pool's familiar boundaries.
