The Waves on Water is a dramatic and emotional semi-autobiographical life story of a girl (La Chica del Agua), fictionally extrapolating inspiration from elements of the author's personal life which she finds metaphorically similar to Water. It is a diary, put together by diary entries of 50 poems (Whispers), ranging from domestic realisations to surreal epiphanies and progressing from the scientific to the artistic. The poems are organised into six cyclical and chronological but linguistically and contextually inter-allusive chapters (Waves), each appropriate to a new stage of life. The reader is led smoothly through a journey of emotional ups and downs (Crests and Troughs) to ponder over each cryptic whisper in the narrative.
