Before the octopus left the water

Empiezo una nueva historia, un nuevo libro que comienza así:

"The infant Thomas W. Just was born on July 2, 1947, to much happiness and many pictures of his mother smiling down at him. It was the day before the octopus left the water, walked on all eight legs across land and into Seal Cave. Sometimes young people made love in that cave. Sometimes boys scaped school and smoked cigarrettes there".
