    Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, a profound meditation on the lives of humble fisherfolk, paints a vivid and detailed picture of a coastal community during the mid-1800s, in which the inhabitants are at the mercy of the tumultuous sea. The narrative follows the life of Josà , a young fisherman, as he navigates the challenges of love, family, and the unpredictable nature of the ocean. The author provides a unique insight into the social and economic conditions of the time, highlighting the hardships and dangers faced by those who depended on the sea for their survival.
