In Great Waters: Four Stories

A set of four maritime short stories combines folklore and coastal tragedy: one follows an islander driven to madness by loss who pronounces a feared curse upon the sea; another recounts a small-community disaster connected to a fishing voyage; a third describes uncanny coastal phenomena and hidden sorrow; and the final tale focuses on things and people thrown up by violent waters. Together the pieces probe the sea's caprice, communal memory and superstition, private guilt and mourning, and the ways ordinary lives are altered by relentless natural forces.
