Water is a vital force, nourishing and connecting both human and non-human life across the globe. In the visual arts, water is frequently present as subject matter, serving symbolic, ritual, and narrative roles. Water can also function generatively as a material source and connecting current, or destructively, enacting ruin and loss on objects, architecture, and environments. Moreover, the current climate crisis, with its widespread and often cataclysmic impacts, has brought renewed attention to water as a threatened resource and potent signifier of ecological distress.

In Beautiful World, Where Are You (2021), Sally Rooney creates a character Alice, a young professional writer who feels conflicted about her literary stardom and financial success. Through Alice, Rooney reflects on the commodification of literary labor and responds to critics who dismiss her work as romance novels in fancy dress. Literary works that are perceived as commercial or popular—literatures that lean in the marketplace—have long divided critical opinions.
