He records the motion of the ocean, the way of the waves, the bodies that wash ashore, and all of that.

But then, after thinking about the well-developed characters, the picturesque prose, the ambiance of the surroundings, the establishment of the situation, and the moral behind it all, I realized that the melo had to be added to the emotional pipe of both the characters as well as the readers in the effort to smoke this pipe to its fullest. In the end everyone was suffering, including the reader who went along for the ride.

On the day of the miracle, Isabel was kneeling at the cliff’s edge, tending the small, newly made driftwood cross.
