Our Wives Under the Sea by Julia Armfield

A Deeply Haunting Story of Love, Loss, and Transformation

Our Wives Under the Sea by Julia Armfield is a beautifully strange and atmospheric novel that blends speculative fiction with emotional realism. The story follows Miri, whose wife Leah returns from a deep-sea mission changed physically, emotionally, and existentially. As Miri struggles to understand the distance between them, the novel unfolds as a haunting meditation on grief, identity, and what it means to hold on to someone slipping away.

Part love story, part body horror, and entirely original, this novel explores what happens when love outlives the person you knew.


Book Bundle

Perfect for fans of The Shape of Water, Mexican Gothic, and The Ocean at the End of the Lane ideal for readers drawn to quiet horror, queer love stories, and surreal psychological fiction.

Why Our Wives Under the Sea is a Must-Read:

  • Genre-Bending: Merges science fiction, romance, and gothic horror.

  • LGBTQ+ Representation: A deeply moving love story between two women.

  • Poetic Prose: Language that is both lyrical and quietly devastating.

  • Deeply Emotional: Explores trauma, disconnection, and unspoken change.


Memorable Quote (from the book)
"Some things are too deep to come back from."

Translation (Sinhala):
"ඇත්තටම කිසිදා නොවෙයි ආපසු එන්න පුළුවන් තරම් ගැඹුරු දේවල් තියෙනවා."

Translation (Tamil):
"சில விஷயங்கள் மிகவும் ஆழமாயிருப்பதால் திரும்ப முடியாது."
