Told from the perspective of a goldfish named Ian as he tumbles from his 27th-floor balcony perch, and observes the lives of the Seville on Roxy’s quirky, complicated, and very real residents, Fishbowl is an intricate, surprising, and impeccably woven tale about who we really are—and aren’t—behind closed doors.
