With the rise of the wind brings together short stories about one person’s thoughts and insights as he absorbs the wonder and mystery surrounding the shore on a tiny piece of the South China Sea; not only about the rise of the wind that can draw out once buried thoughts and emotions dormant in the hearts of those who occasionally stand or sit near the shore and become hypnotized by the power and moods of the sea. There are little stories here also about the people living beside this sea on a coral-reef fringed provincial coast and the mountain behind it; about earthquakes and typhoons and their effects above and below the sea; about the lives of birds and snakes, of fish and starfish; with fragments of home-spun philosophy, biology, geology, meteorology, oceanography and volcanism, as well as idle thoughts about how the universe comes together at the shore.
