‘Summerwater’ Makes an Intimate Study of Social Class Out of a Long, Rainy Day When you purchase an independently reviewed book through our site, we earn an affiliate commission. Against the wisdom of the ages, you can tell a book by its cover. You can usually tell one by its title, too. “Summerwater” is Sarah Moss’s new novel. Her title is taken from the “The Ballad of Semmerwater,” a poem by the Englishman William Watson (1858-1935). It suggests density and perhaps difficulty, in the manner of the word “riverrun,” which appears in the first sentence of “Finnegans Wake.” As titles go, it’s mildly pretentious.
