Overview

A blind hermit living on the shores of Kenya finds that his esoteric knowledge of seashells can save lives-forcing a haunting recognition of his own heart and humanity . . . Health troubles cause a crafty old businessman to retire to Miami Beach, where he finds paradise to be a mixed blessing . . . An idealistic young globetrotter winds up stranded in a Thailand beach shack, determined to shed the baggage of his Western identity. Is it universal consciousness or a really bad case of dysentery? In these stories and seven other exquisitely wrought tales, this collection puts the word "beach" in "beach read." Made in Melcher Media's patented waterproof DuraBook format, THE BEACH BOOK: STORIES OF PARADISE AND PARADISE (LOST) is designed to be put in your beach bag along with a towel, shades, sunscreen, beach ball, and flip-flops. The perfect companion for a day of sand and surf, THE BEACH BOOK gathers a seminal selection of short fiction about beaches around this big blue globe. Readers enter sensuous, magical, and mysterious worlds where shores indelibly mark the lives of their residents and visitors. Each of these incredible stories explores the different ways that the beach has come to promise nothing short of paradise on earth. Internationally acclaimed authors, like Gabriel Garcia Mrquez and Isaac Bashevis Singer, as well as emerging voices, such as Anthony Doerr and Frederick Reiken, have all heard the sea's siren song and written eloquently about it. A perfect vacation companion, THE BEACH BOOK offers a rich, multi-faceted portrait of beach cultures around the world. Along the way, readers visit the coasts of the Caribbean, California, Thailand, and Africa. Other authorsinclude Gina Berriault, Roald Dahl, Jeffrey Eugenides, Hester Kaplan, Matthew Klam, and Robert Stone.
