Inspired by The Word for World Is Forest by Ursula K. Le Guin, this book understands water as a cosmological force that shapes worlds, resists them, and sustains them. It brings together artists, thinkers, and activists from around the globe to explore fluid bodies—rivers that carry resistance, oceans that shelter communities, peatlands that preserve memory. From Indigenous, ecological, and decolonial perspectives, the contributors evoke water as archive, kinship, and living territory—a medium of transformation, resistance, and survival. The result is a polyphonic atlas of fluid world-making for our planetary time.
