A Wave that Tastes of Fish tells the life story of a 34-year-old woman, Mamen, whose experience on the margins leads her to solitude and isolation, a spider's web that will gradually slip away from her after spending a few days with a girl who lives in a lighthouse on the Mediterranean coast. A place where nothing and no one are what they seem. Not the sea, or the sky, or the octopuses, or the lighthouse, or the people who live there. A story full of symbolism and humour but written very simply. A delight.
