"DAS MEER DER VERLORENEN ZEIT: "Gegen Ende Januar wurde das Meer wieder rauh, begann das Dorf mit einem Haufen Unrat zu überschütten, und wenige Wochen später war von der unerträglichen Laune des Meeres alles vergiftet. Danach blieb die Welt sinnlos, zumindest bis zum nächsten Dezember, und niemand war nach acht Uhr noch wach. Doch in dem Jahr, als Señor Herbert kam, erzürnte sich das Meer nicht, nicht einmal im Februar. Im Gegenteil, es wurde immer glatter und schillernder und verströmte in den ersten Märznächten Rosenduft.""
