The Puddle That Held the Sky: Some memories never dry.

Description

In a small town forgotten by time, there is a puddle that never dries. And what it reflects isn’t the sky—it’s the truth.

When Marina returns to her childhood village, she finds the town square exactly as she left it: the old cashew tree, the crooked benches, and the mysterious puddle that has always defied the sun. But this time, the water reflects more than clouds. It shows faces that no longer exist. Memories she never lived. Secrets the town tried desperately to burn, bury, and forget.

As Marina unravels the meaning behind the visions—and the disappearance of people whose names were erased from every record—the puddle seems to awaken, returning everything the town tried to silence.

Because memory has a way of resurfacing. And some truths, once revealed, refuse to stay submerged.

A poetic and haunting tale of magical realism, The Puddle That Held the Sky is perfect for readers of Neil Gaiman, Gabriel García Márquez, José Saramago, and Kazuo Ishiguro—stories where the ordinary and the mystical walk side by side.

For readers who love atmospheric, introspective fiction that stays with you long after the last page.
