Everyone on the tiny island of Ellworh has a relationship with the sea-some are fond and some are fearful. Situated where the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans meet, every two years the storms come, leaving destruction and death in their wake. As a new storm approaches, one father is looking for his child and another family is searching for their missing friend. Author Elena Ghebrenegus Baht's is a poetic tale that juxtaposes the turmoil of the sea with the inner unrest of the island folk. Taking on a fable-like quality, the story shares dialogues between the ocean and the characters. Among the islanders, a surprisingly sage old drunk appears to see the sea most clearly, pointing out how the ocean feels its way to freedom rather than being harnessed and held captive like most humans. And a young girl braves the storm on the hope that a fisherman's tale means she will see her mother's dearly departed soul. A brooding tale that searches the depths of our inner oceans, will leave you reflecting, along with the characters, on what is driving you and what is holding you back.
