City in the River, City in the Forest

Melanie Westerberg

Mary finds herself enchanted by the myth of the pink dolphins who transform into humans and once, while out on a boat, she fancies she can see the city below the water. For her, Hectór is a portal into another, magical world.

Puerto Anunciación, where he works, is far from her lodge and they communicate with notes pinned to the door, or small gifts left for each other. Sometimes he appears by her hammock late at night or she arrives back in her room to find him coiled under the duvet.
