Wind and weather, well can related to the Supernatural- also warlike themes ( such as Desert Storm, Walking in the rain ( song comes on with an artillery barrage of l05's) - story does not relate to warfare- but is on the impossible side of fantasy- supernatural in that sense. I never liked the story and felt it had very deep homosexual overtones.
It is essentially an animal cartoon written as a novel. I have read exercepts of it dragged into grammar and high school literature classes. It is unusual in being an animal cartoon written as a novel. The only other one- intended mainly for adults was ( Where the Blue Begins) by Christopher Morley. It deals with the adventures of a canine yacht club , yes, literal sea dogs. The idea of animal Cartoons is fine and fun for kids but runs out of steam in novel form, at least to me.
I never could figure out the title. Unlilke some weather analogies ( desert storm, Walking in the Rain) it does not refer to war. Might mean something like a Breath of Fresh air. the phrase is also found in one of the songs of Fats Domino ( Blueberry Hill).
"Believe me, my young friend, there is nothingโabsolutely nothingโhalf so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats." - Kenneth Grahame, "The Wind in the Willows"
It is the song of Pan the god of nature calling Mole and Water Rat to the place where Otters lost bady son is.
