The Storm Breaks (The Count of Monte Cristo, Chapter 21 – Part 4)
from The Countdown of Monte Cristo · host Grunt Work Podcasts
Sheltering beneath an overhanging rock, Dantès endures the full fury of the tempest. In The Count of Monte Cristo, Chapter 21, he quenches his thirst with rainwater, then witnesses a fishing-boat wrecked in the storm — its sailors’ cries carried to him before vanishing into darkness. By dawn, the sea calms, the sky clears, and Edmond sees the first light of a new day. ⸻ New to the journey?
