A sleepy little town discovers its memories have become part of the water cycle in Naomi Salmans debut novella, Nothing but the Rain. The rain in Aloisville is never-ending, and no one can remember when it started. Theres not much they can remember. With every drop that hits their skin, a bit of memory is washed away.

Every drop of water is dangerous, from leaky faucets to the near-constant rainfall, and a careless trip outside can mean a life down the drain. With mysterious forces preventing escape, calls for rebellion seem to be on every residents lips. But Laverne has no interest in fighting. She has no interest in rebellion. She just wants to survive.Naomi Salman is a writer, editor, and translator. She has published fiction in both French and English, and been nominated for a Prix du Jeune Écrivain and an Eisner Award.
