About This Book

Kertomus sijoittuu jyrkälle kalliorannalle rakennettuun kalastajakylään, jossa merimieskapteeni saapuu ihastelemaan maisemaa ja tutustuu paikallisiin. Hän keskustelee kyläläisten kanssa, kiinnittyy nuoreen kalastajaan ja huomaa tämän ihastuksen, seuraten heidän arkensa ja yhteisön elämänkuvauksia. Pieni kauppa toimii samanaikaisesti postikonttorina, ja saapuvaan viestiin liittyvät kohtaamiset ja paljastukset alkavat vaikuttaa kylän suhteisiin. Teksti yhdistää havainnollisen miljöönkuvauksen ja ihmisten väliset pienet tapahtumat, jotka ohjaavat kertomuksen kulkua.
