...Thursday morning in March, 2002, John Darwin paddled his red kayak into the unforgiving North Sea near the industrial port of Hartlepool in northeastern England. He never returned home. In short order, an oar from Darwin's kayak washed up on a local beach. A search team of lifeboats, a Royal Navy ship and a Royal Air Force helicopter mobilized for a frantic, 16-hour search.

As much as Dylan’s incarnations reject or hide from life, they always strive for fulfillment, whether through success, love, or God.
