The sea is the universe close to us. Here is the story of a man who lives at the water's edge watching the rise and fall of the shoreline. It is the sea itself that gives him everything he needs to survive, and yet it will take courage to enter the sometimes roaring waters.
The man knows that this sea that gives him everything, can also take it away, but with the help of friends and with patience, he knows the sea can be a balm and a source of life. With bright and beautiful watercolour art by Amanda Mijangos, this simple story from the Notebooks of Nobel laureate Saramago, will excite and intrigue the youngest readers - and all of those who read along with them.
