Story Summary

Marcellus and his cat, Clara, live on the beach in a ramshackle hut. They help the townspeople whenever they need help and are quite content except for one thing. Marcellus wants a garden. But each year his plantings fail to grow, that is until the hurricane, which changes everything... for the better.
