Michael and his dog Stella are stranded on an island after they fall off of a boat. They are not the only inhabitants of the island. A man lives there too. The man called Kensuke has survived on the island for quite a time and lives on luxury compared to Michael's time. At first, Kensuke is hostile and untrusting towards Michael and only allows Michael to stay on 1/2 of the island. Then Kensuke slowly allows Michael into his world.
I thought that this story was so sweet and described human nature very well. The characters were very well developed.
