Matt Bondurant's novel The Wettest County in the World was a New York Times Editor's Find, one of the San Francisco Chronicle's 50 Best Books of the Year, and is currently a major motion picture. Bondurant has delivered The Nighttime Swimmer, an atmospheric tale infused with Hitchcockian suspense. When Fred and Elly Bulkington get to a little town on the southern coast of Ireland from Vermont, having earned a pub in a competition, they come across a wild, weird land and the indigenous resistance to outsiders. As Fred immerses himself in the life of a pub-owner, Elly can take the ferry out to a local island where she-to the disbelief of the locals-is consumed by her ritual of available water ocean swimming, driving herself to the limits. Elly becomes enmeshed in the island's troubles-the electric power struggles between an enigmatic goat herder and the family that has managed the area for centuries-while Fred's sanity wavers and their relationship commences to unravel. Filled up with lush imagery of the Irish coast, crashing sea, rolling hills, and rich Irish lore, The Nighttime Swimmer is a stunning novel that exposes the dark and unseen crevasses in the individuals heart.
