    The Covenant of Water is a novel by Abraham Verghese, the author of Cutting for Stone. It follows three generations of a family in Kerala, South India, who suffer from a peculiar affliction: at least one person dies by drowning. At the turn of the century, a twelve-year-old girl is sent by boat to her wedding, where she will meet her forty-year-old husband for the first time. The novel is a hymn to progress in medicine and human understanding, and a testament to the difficulties undergone by past generations for the sake of those alive today.
