Excerpt from Carmela
Entonces, con sus persianas caidas, con sus puertas cerradas vista desde la inundada playa, aparecía aquella casa, muda, triste.
Y era preciso resguardada así, porque si no todo su interior lo empaparía el polvillo de agua cargado de salitre, que en su agitación furiosa, lanzaban las olas y esparcía el fuerte viento que soplaba del norte.
