The Secret of the Tides. Between ebb and flow, not only the tides decide, but also the fates of people. A mosaic of memories, encounters, and quiet destinies: people drawn to the sea - and who return changed by it. Their paths cross on the Baltic Sea: lovers, the lost, the waiting, the departing. Between beach chairs and cemeteries, between farewell and new beginnings, they tell stories of guilt and hope, of loneliness and second chances. With quiet melancholy and great humanity, this book is a tribute to life - contradictory, painful, comforting. And always in motion.
