The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World is a story about how an unreal sized man changes what a village expects from life. His large size stretches their imagination and what they believed was possible.
They thought he was a handsome powerful majestic man. The women wished their men were like him big and powerful. The women were glad when the men returned from the nearby villages saying the man didn't belong to them.
However soon they realised how his size must have changed his life. How he would have to go through doors sideways, lean against walls instead of siting down it chairs,and how his size made him clumsy.
The story shows how when confronted with something new and different humans learn and adapt from it. And how what seems like a blessing can be a curse.
