The rising tide examines the tensions between personal freedom and traditional expectations within a family navigating societal change. Set in a fading neighborhood that reflects the family's own decline, the narrative highlights generational differences through the perspectives of a mother and daughter. The mother clings to conventional ideals of duty and domestic order, while her daughter challenges those roles by pursuing independence and resisting the constraints of gender norms. The novel opens by framing their home and street as symbols of a world in transition, drawing attention to the emotional and ideological shifts occurring within the family. A quiet confrontation begins when the daughter voices her dissatisfaction with expectations placed upon her, particularly regarding her future and her role in the household. Conversations among relatives and visitors reveal deeper struggles between affection, control, and personal growth. The work captures the uncertainties of a society caught between tradition and progress, using the domestic space as a lens through which broader cultural shifts are explored.
