He has the face of one who’s called Esteban.

This line is derived from a short story named “The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World” by Gabriel García Márquez, a Colombian author.

The story is taking place in a small town with small fishing community.

This story begins with the dead body reaching the shore. The dead body is later taken by the people to check whether one among them is missing. The dead body looked bulky and weighed heavy. When it is found that no one from their town is missing, the men of the town go to the nearby town to check while the women stay behind to clean the dead body.

After cleaning the dead body, the women are amazed by the handsome face of the dead body. All the women in the town are infatuated and they started to daydream the man (dead body). The oldest women in the town sees the face of the man (dead body) and comments, “He has the face of one who’s called Esteban”.

The men come back with no information about him (dead body). The men of the town are also amazed by the beauty of the dead body and they all hold a big funeral for him (dead body).

This story talks about the huge impact the dead body creates on the people of the town.
