The Teahouse of the August Moon Quotes

“Pineapple Isle was one of two small islands, Baxemboy being the other. Both were no more than thin stretches of duny landscape that bent inward toward the mainland. These isles almost enclosed the bay, save for three inlets. The northernmost inlet was located between a thin stretch of dunes attached to the main island and Baxemboy, leaving a channel for the currents to mingle freely.”
― Joyce Bergvelt, Lord of Formosa
