On some nights, a mysterious rider on a white horse appears on the coast of northern Germany. He evokes the story of Hauke Haien, who loved the sea but also recognized its immense power and subsequently developed a novel model for dike construction. The villagers distrusted the young outsider, even mocking him—until the next storm surge came. Theodor Storm's novella is a timeless story about the fear of change and loss, the reluctance to embrace innovation—but also about human hubris.
