Waist Deep

Beskrivelse

A captivating summer story about old friends, complicated loves, and the ties that bind them. Set over seven days in a Danish cabin, it explores desire, friendship, and the challenges of growing up.

A heartfelt tale of friendship, longing, and the clash between youthful ideals and adult realities.

Waist Deep follows five university friends spending a week together in a rural cabin in Denmark. It’s a time to swim, sunbathe, flirt, and relive the carefree days of their youth-or so Sylvia hopes. But as her friends arrive with jobs, children, and partners in tow, Sylvia can’t help but wonder where their once-radical ways have gone.

Things get even more complicated when Esben and Karen reveal they’re getting married by the end of the week, threatening Sylvia’s long-held crush on Esben-a secret her monogamous girlfriend Charlie would never approve of. Throughout the week, the group cooks, swims, and flirts, with desire and tension bubbling beneath the surface.

As the wedding day nears, will their idyllic dreams survive, or will everything fall apart? Praised as “an evocative debut about the fragility and fluidity of adult friendship” by the Observer, Waist Deep is a hot, heady, and beautifully queer novel that lingers long after the last page.
