In the evening they played cards at Steers's. Among those gathered was Thomas Harvey, a young man stranded in Liss due to serious illness. While playing, Harvey heard a woman's voice clearly say: "Running on the waves." Moreover, the other players did not hear anything. The day before, from the window of the tavern, Harvey watched as a girl came off the ship, acting as if she was gifted with the secret of subjugating circumstances and people. The next morning, Thomas went to find out where the stranger who had amazed him was staying, and learned that her name was Biche Seniel. For some reason, he saw a connection between the stranger and yesterday’s incident behind the cards. This guess became stronger when in the port he saw a ship with light contours and on its board the inscription: “Running on the waves.” Captain Guez, an unfriendly and harsh man, refused to take Harvey as a passenger without the permission of the owner, a certain Brown. With Brown's note, the captain received Harvey almost kindly and introduced him to his assistants Sinkwright and Butler, who made a good impression, unlike the rest of the crew, who looked more like rabble than sailors. During the voyage, Thomas learned that the ship was built by Ned Seniel. Seniel Harvey had already seen the portrait of his daughter Bice on the table in the captain's cabin. Gez bought the ship when Ned went broke. At Dagon, three women boarded. Harvey did not want to take part in the fun that had begun with the captain, and he stayed at his place. After some time, hearing the screams of one of the women and the threats of the drunken captain, Harvey intervened and, in defense, knocked the captain down with a blow to the jaw. Enraged, Ghez ordered to be put into a boat and launched into the open sea. When the boat was already drifting away from the side, a woman wrapped from head to toe deftly jumped over to Harvey. Under a hail of ridicule, they set sail from the ship. When the stranger spoke, Harvey realized that it was this voice that he had heard at Steers’s party. The girl called herself Frezi Grant and told Harvey to head south. There he will be picked up by a ship heading to Gel-Gyu. Having made him promise not to tell anyone about her, including Beach Seniel, Frezi Grant stepped onto the water and rushed off into the distance along the waves. By noon, Harvey actually met the “Dive”, going to Gel-Gyu. Here on the ship, Harvey again heard about Frezi Grant. One day, in a completely calm sea, a rising wave lowered her father’s frigate near the extraordinary beauty of the island, to which there was no possibility of mooring. Frezi, however, insisted, and then the young lieutenant casually noted that the girl was so thin and light that she could run on water. In response, she jumped onto the water and easily ran through the waves. Then the fog descended, and when it cleared, neither the island nor the girl was visible. They say she began to appear as a castaway. Harvey listened to the legend with special attention, but only Daisy, Proctor’s niece, noticed this. Finally, “Dive” approached Gel-Gyu. The city was in the grip of a carnival. Harvey walked along with the motley crowd and found himself near a marble figure, on the pedestal of which was the inscription: “Running on the waves.” The city, it turns out, was founded by Williams Hobbes, who was shipwrecked a hundred years ago in the surrounding waters. And Frezi Grant saved him, running along the waves and naming a course that led Hobbes to the then deserted shore, where he settled. Then a woman called out to Harvey and said that a person in a yellow dress with brown fringe was waiting for him at the theater. Having no doubt that it was Bice Seniel, Harvey hurried to the theater. But the woman dressed as said turned out to be Daisy. She was disappointed that Harvey called her by Beeche's name and quickly left. A minute later Harvey saw Bice Seniel. She brought money and was now looking for a meeting with Gez to buy the ship. Harvey managed to find out which hotel Ghez was staying at. The next morning he went there with Butler. They went up to the captain. Gez lay with a bullet through his head. People came running. Suddenly they brought Biche Seniel. It turned out that the day before the captain was very drunk. In the morning a young lady came to him, and then a shot rang out. The girl was detained on the stairs. But then Butler spoke up and admitted that it was he who killed Gez. He had his own account with the scammer. It turns out that the Wave Runner was carrying a cargo of opium, and Butler was owed a significant portion of the income, but the captain deceived him. He didn’t find Gez in the room, and when he appeared with the lady, Butler hid in the closet. But the date ended in an ugly scene, and in order to get rid of Gez, the girl jumped out of the window onto the landing, where she was later detained. When Butler got out of the closet, the captain attacked him, and Butler had no choice but to kill him. Having learned the truth about the ship, Beach ordered the desecrated vessel to be sold at auction. Before parting, Harvey told Beach about his meeting with Frezi Grant. Beach suddenly began to insist that his story was a legend. Harvey thought that Daisy would have taken his story with complete confidence, and remembered with regret that Daisy was engaged. Some time passed. One day in Lega, Harvey met Daisy. She broke up with her fiancé, and there was no regret in her story about it. Soon Harvey and Daisy got married. Doctor Filatr visited their house on the seashore. He spoke about the fate of the ship "Running on the Waves", the dilapidated hull of which he discovered near a deserted island. How and under what circumstances the crew left the ship remained a mystery. Saw Filatr and Bice Seniel. She was already married and gave Harvey a short letter wishing him happiness. Daisy, she said, expected the letter to recognize Harvey's right to see what he wanted. Daisy Harvey speaks for everyone: “Thomas Harvey, you are right. Everything was as you said. Frezi Grant! You exist! Answer me!” " Good evening, Friends! - we heard from the sea. “I’m in a hurry, I’m running...”

In the evening they played cards at Steers's. Among those gathered was Thomas Harvey, a young man stranded in Liss due to serious illness. During the game, Harvey heard a woman's voice clearly say: “Running on the waves.” Moreover, the other players did not hear anything.
The day before, from the window of the tavern, Harvey watched as a girl came off the ship, acting as if she was gifted with the secret of subjugating circumstances and people. The next morning, Thomas went to find out where the victim was staying.
He was a stranger, and found out that her name was Biche Seniel.

Alexander Green's novels are not at all similar to Russian literature. They give the reader a sense of unfulfillment , something very subtle - like a breath in the air, which shows even very summary. “Running on the Waves,” like Greene’s other stories, was considered a work of the romantic genre. But over time, new genres have appeared, and literary scholars now classify it as fantasy.
Today we will talk about the story "Running on the Waves". A brief summary will allow you to navigate the plot of the work, which combines reality and a pinch of fiction.
Chapters 1-6
In the evening, a group of people gathered at Steers's to play cards. Among those invited was a young man named Thomas Harvey. He was seriously ill and was therefore stuck in Lissa until he could get back on his feet. In the middle of the game, he heard a female voice that clearly said one phrase: “Running on the waves.”
Only yesterday Harvey saw from the window of the tavern a girl going down the ladder of the ship. Even from afar it seemed that she could subjugate everything in this life - both people and circumstances. The next morning, the young man learned the name of the stranger - Beach Saniel. Harvey clearly felt some kind of connection between her and the voice he heard yesterday.
The conjecture was strengthened by the ship "Running on the Waves", which he saw in the port. The sharp and unpleasant captain of the ship, Guez, agreed to take Thomas on board as a passenger only with the permission of the owner of the ship, a certain Brown.
"Running on the Waves": summary of chapters 7-12
After Harvey returned to Captain Guez with a note from Brown, he became softer and greeted him more warmly. Guez introduced the young man to his assistants, Butler and Sinkwright. They seemed to Thomas to be quite good people and sailors. The rest of the team looked like some kind of rabble.
A. Green “Running on the Waves”: summary of chapters 13-18
After sailing, Thomas Harvey learns that the Wave Runner was built by Ned Saniel. On the captain's desk there was a framed portrait of Biché, his daughter. When Ned Saniel went bankrupt, Guez purchased the ship.
The very brief summary we present comes to a turning point. “Running on the Waves” what does it talk about next? At the port of Dagon, three women boarded the ship to entertain the captain and crew. Very soon one of them began to scream, followed by swearing. Thomas Harvey tried to protect the woman and knocked down Guez with a blow to the jaw. He did not expect this and fell.
“Running on the Waves” (we are considering a summary of the work) continues with the enraged Captain Guez putting Thomas Harvey on a boat and pushing it into the sea. At the last minute, a girl joins him. She says her name is Frezi Grant and tells him to sail south. Harvey recognizes this voice - it was the one he heard then at Stairs's party.
According to Frezi, south of here he will meet a ship bound for Gel-Gyu, and thus escape. Having given instructions and made the young man promise not to talk about her to anyone - not even Beach Saniel - Frezi Grant stepped overboard and easily swept away across the waves. By lunchtime the next day, Harvey was indeed picked up by the ship "Nyrok", heading to Gel-Gyu. There he heard about Frezi Grant again.
The legend around which the story unfolds is all about Alexander Greene. “Running on the Waves” (summary) has its own. Desi Grant's father had a frigate, and Frezi traveled on it. One day, in a completely smooth sea, a wave lowered a frigate near the shore of a very beautiful island, which was impossible to land on. However, Frezi wanted to go ashore, and she insisted. The lieutenant, very young, casually noticed that the girl was so fragile and refined that she could run to the shore on the waves on her own. She heard him, jumped over the side and really took off across the water. Immediately the fog descended. When it dissipated, there was no more island or Frezi.
Only Proctor's niece, Daisy, saw how carefully Harvey listened to this legend.
Chapters 19-24
When the "Dive" arrived at the port of Gel-Gyu, a carnival was in full swing in the city. The spontaneous movement of the crowd carried Thomas to a marble pedestal with the inscription “Running on the Waves,” topped with a marble figure. As it turned out, the founder of the city, William Hobbes, was saved by Frezi Grant a hundred years ago. When he was shipwrecked, a woman running on the waves showed him the course and brought him to this shore, which was then still deserted.
Thomas was informed that a woman in a tan outfit would be waiting for him at the theater. Feeling the presence of Biche, he sees the girl and calls out to her. But it turns out that Desi was waiting for him. She understands that he wanted to see someone else, gets offended and leaves. Literally a minute later, Harvey meets Beach Saniel. It turns out that she got money and came to buy the ship. The girl is looking for Gyoza to make a deal.
"Running on the Waves": summary of chapters 25-29
The next morning, Butler and Harvey go to see Captain Geuze at the hotel where he is staying. They find him murdered in his room. Everyone unanimously insists that Biche killed him. The girl went up to the captain’s room, and almost immediately a shot rang out. Beach Saniel was then caught on the stairs and detained as a suspect.
Unable to bear it, Butler admits that it was he who killed Gyoza. As it turned out, the Wave Runner was secretly transporting a large cargo of opium. Butler was “in share,” but the captain broke his promise and did not pay most of the promised money. When Butler went to his room, there was no one there. But then Guez appeared with a lady whom he recognized as Biché. Instead of talking about the deal, he began to pester the girl, but she stopped this by jumping through the window onto the stairs, where she was detained.
After that, Butler crawled out of the closet. Guez saw him and attacked. Defending himself, Butler killed the captain.
Chapters 30-35
Having learned about the nasty cargo, Beach decided to sell the "Wave Runner" at auction. Thomas Harvey told her about Frezi Grant, to which the girl coldly replied that it was just a legend. Then the young man realized that Desi would have believed him, and regretted that she would soon get married. However, fate is generous with surprises: soon Thomas and Desi met again, and it turned out that her engagement was broken off.
This is a very brief summary of the story "Running on the Waves", and it comes to an end. After some time, the heroes got married and began to live in a house on the seashore. One day Doctor Filatr visited them, and his visit brought a lot of news. The doctor said that with his own eyes he saw the broken “Wave Runner” off the coast of a deserted island. In addition, he met Beach Saniel. She got married and gave it to Thomas short letter with wishes of happiness.
Desi voiced Thomas's thoughts: he hoped that Biche would acknowledge Frezi's existence in the letter. The novel “Running on the Waves”, a brief summary of this work we reviewed, ends with Frezi’s phrase, which can be heard from afar: “I’m running...”

Detailed retelling
A retelling in detail of the novel “Running on the Waves.” The story begins with a game of cards, which 
regularly took place at Stress's house. One day, Thomas Harvey, who remained in the city due to health conditions, came to see him.
While playing cards, the main character thought that some woman uttered the words “Running on the waves.” Everyone else did not react to this event in any way.
The day before, Harvey spent the evening in a tavern: he sat by the window, so he could see a beautiful girl descending from the ship.
She amazed everyone around her with her ideal posture, had an arrogant appearance, so she easily subjugated anyone.
The young man had the idea of finding this charming person and getting to know her. The character learns the name of the stranger - Biche Seniel. The hero feels a boundless connection between the girl and the incident behind the cards.
The captain of the Wave Runner, Guez, took Thomas on board the ship without the owner's knowledge. All the workers were kind and hospitable. Thomas gets the impression that all the people on the ship do not look like sailors.
The description leads us to believe that the ship was designed by Ned Seniel. The character manages to see a portrait of Seniel on one of the tables. Gez was able to buy the ship after his partner went completely bankrupt. During the journey, three more women joined the company. The manager decided to organize an event on this occasion, but Thomas had no desire to take part in it.
However, a little later, the squeals of women came into the cabin, so he had to come to the general company. Guez threatened them. After lengthy arguments, the captain ordered the man to be loaded into a boat and released into the open ocean. In the process of setting off, one of the girls manages to join him. They began to gradually move away from the ship.
After the discussion began, Harvey realized that it was this voice that he heard while playing cards. The lady introduced herself as Frezi Grant. They explained how to move to get to the ship that was waiting for her. Harvey receives from her a ban on discussing the person with Beach Seniel. After the conversation ends, the girl simply stands on the waves and walks away along them.
At 12 noon, the main character manages to get on the ship, which is heading for Gel-Gyu. He told the captain about the unusual companion who saved his life. Additionally, he receives other information about his companion.
