Instead, Benitez links the characters together by setting their stories against the background tale of the improbable Remedios, who performs short rituals every so often, each time summoning one of the four elements of tierra, fuego, agua, aire to her, to remind us of her latent existence. Remedios provides a superficial and irritating Great Earth Mother feel to A Place Where the Sea Remembers, the blurb on the book's jacket waxes fulsome over the "secret dreams and desires known only to the omniscient sea and to the curandera Remedios' a healer who hears them all."

Final clubs receive no University funding or recognition, nor do they seek such treatment. Also, we should remind the staff that Americans, even Harvard students, maintain the right to engage in their own private associations...
