Summary
Rin was six years old when his father went off to sea and never came back. He was six years old and held his little sister’s hand at the back of the funeral procession, all clad in sorrow and white silk. He was six years old with people telling him “it’ll be okay son, it’ll get easier to bear eventually”.
Somehow, he thinks, it never did.
Toraichi Matsuoka died on that stormy summer night. They had buried an empty casket but the grave was overlooking the sea, so it had to count for something, right?
A story about family and dreams and learning to breathe when the world crumbles around you.
