Mangroves are a species of tree that grow in tropical or subtropical coastal salt water. They are characterized by dense, tangled roots that grow above ground, which allow the trees to withstand the movement of tides. Ecologically, mangrove forests provide a stabilizing function, reducing coastline erosion brought on by storms, tide changes, and water currents.
In Dreamland, one of Morgan and Colby’s first dates is kayaking through a mangrove forest. As they travel through a narrow canal, they share the same experience of feeling suspended in time and in a world of their own. Their shared response to the mangroves reflects their ability to supplement and balance each other’s strengths and weaknesses. In addition, the mangroves symbolize the protective cocoon of their relationship, which, if it is to endure, must survive in and coexist with the world outside of it. To experience the full potential of their love, they must be willing to endure the pain that will inevitably come with it, from dealing with fear of rejection, to thriving despite long distances and opposite lifestyles, to figuring out how to reconcile family responsibilities with their commitment to each other.
