REVIEW: “Those Uncaring Waves” by Yukimi Ogawa

Review of Yukimi Ogawa, “Those Uncaring Waves”, Clarkesworld Issue 222, March (2025): Read Online. Reviewed by Myra Naik.

A hauntingly beautiful novella. So well written, richly layered, and very detailed. This was an absolute treat to read.

A story with an intricately created world usually has that as the highlight of the story. Here, it was the background for another beautiful story. I cannot overstate how lovely this story is – the plot, the emotion, the scale, the world building, the structure – everything so so good.

This novella is a must-read. I can’t even try to put it in a genre or explain “key points”. Read for yourself and see; thank me later!
