As a boy stares out to sea from his favorite jetty, a late summer storm creeps up, wreaks havoc, and quickly slips away again. Fisher's characteristic solid forms, with their dramatic play of light and shadow, are the perfect match for the churning seas and skies. The use of chocolate tones lends an appropriately eerie feel. The text is quiet and thoughtful.
