'Captivating. A deeply satisfying, deftly woven novel of female power and resistance' Anna Hope
'Addictive and twisty' Liza Klaussman
Two sisters. A shipwreck. A story demanding to be told . . .
Iceland, 1910. In the middle of a severe storm two sisters - Freyja and Gudrún - rescue a mysterious, charismatic man from a shipwreck near their remote farm.
Sixty-five years later, a young woman - Sigga - is spending time with her grandmother when they learn a body has been discovered on a mountainside near Reykjavik, perfectly preserved in ice.
Moving between the turn of the 20th century and the 1970s as a dark mystery is unravelled, The Swell is a spellbinding, beautifully atmospheric read, rich in Icelandic myth.

Reseñas de la crítica
A deeply satisfying, deftly woven novel of female power and resistance, and of feminisms both implicit and explicit. Early and late 20th century Iceland are both beautifully evoked in Kat Gordon's rich, captivating prose. Highly recommended.
Thoroughly bewitching. Kat Gordon's spare prose is as beautiful as it is haunting.
In beautiful, crisp prose The Swell examines the saga of one family and the often complicated role of the women within it. An addictive and twisty read.
A skilful, measured, atmospheric mystery set in Iceland and weaving across two timelines. Kat Gordon is a master storyteller.
Gripping, bewitching, and laced with atmosphere, reading The Swell was a wonderfully sensory experience.
Beautiful and powerful, a story of courage and survival that echoes across generations. Kat Gordon presents us with a compelling tale of two women living in very different times in the 20th century, both striving for change in the face of danger and oppression. The harsh, often lightless, landscape mirrors the struggle for liberation for these young women. I am sure this haunting, melancholic yet ultimately hopeful novel will appeal to readers of Elizabeth O'Connor's Whale Fall.
Set against a dramatic and treacherous Icelandic landscape, The Swell is a cinematic and compelling story of hope, autonomy and transformation.
Spellbinding. Entranced by dark, icy, mythical Iceland and captivated by two generations of women and their struggle for agency, I could not put The Swell down. Evocative and heartbreaking, this is a story of sisterhood, with a page-turning mystery at the heart of the novel.
