Book Description:
|
During the cause of an idyllic summer's day in the country a senseless crime is committed. In its wake, fantasies and passions, desire and loss unite the destinies of the villagers. Most affected is young Martin: his fertile imagination inspires him to identify now with the swordfish--terror of the seas--now with Clint Eastwood, but above all with Jesus Christ.
