It is midmorning on Zushi beach in Kanagawa Prefecture, and all is well with Jellyfish, scented with new-cut wood and offering more than a hint of the elusive.
Jellyfish is the name of a new "umi no ie" ("sea house") built by a Chinese-Japanese who goes by the name of "Boss." He thought it would be fun to have a bar-cum-restaurant to use as a base for his own marine activities, and offer his Labrador retriever the luxury of a shower after a dip in the ocean. But Boss keeps a low profile. He's in a new phase, not interested in talking about the past.
