A BEST BOOK OF 2025 - TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT
'Nothing short of visionary . . . a remarkable work'
LILI ANOLIK
In this beautiful and wide-ranging exploration of water, film and dreams versus reality, award-winning Italian author and filmmaker Chiara Barzini traces the geography of the Los Angeles aqueduct, from its source, across the desert, to the city that it helped into existence, all while reckoning with her personal history with the landscape. From the 'fake' waters of the Universal Studios Jaws attraction to Salton Sea - California's largest lake and 'the only man-made mistake visible from space' - Aqua explores how water, and its absence, shaped both a modern landscape and the history of film.
