This is a story of hurricane survival - a story of the costs and comforts of living on our hurricane coasts. This story of one family's encounter with a storm named Sandy tells of weaknesses and strengths known to all of us, within a setting of beauty and terror - along the Atlantic coast. In this place, where the soul is fed as stoutly as the body on the ocean's riches, and to which people have been drawn for millennia, two worlds collide - one solid and one fluid - one in which people can dwell and one in which we cannot. This collision of worlds, across a changeable, unknowable boundary, holds an attraction that cannot be resisted and sometimes must be escaped. On Monday October 22, 2012, a weather system in the Caribbean caught the attention of meteorologists as a matter of routine. Its heavy clouds gave scattered showers to splash on the heaving surface of the darkened sea. By the next Monday this storm named Sandy, born on the sands of the Sahara, had traveled over six thousand miles - over ocean and island - to one of the most populous coastlines in the world and there, it irrevocably changed the lives of tens of thousands of people.
