Anees Salim
The Small-Town Sea is a novel about a young boy coming to terms with the death of his father—a writer who hopes his son will follow in his footsteps. The narrative is set in a seaside town that is also the venue for many of the dying father’s books. Salim’s latest deftly explores growing up and the legacies we carry.
