It had been raining for seven years; thousands upon thousands of days compounded and filled from one end to the other with rain, with the drum and gush of water, with the sweet crystal fall of showers and the concussion of storms so heavy they were tidal waves come over the islands.
They were all nine years old, and if there had been a day, seven years ago, when the sun came out for an hour and showed its face to the stunned world, they could not recall.

Summer solstice is the first day of summer - it's usually between June 20th to June 23rd.
We know it's summer because the earth's axis tilts towards the sun from June to September - this means warmer weather and longer days.
On the summer solstice we get between 15 and 20 hours of sunlight, depending on where you're located in the world.

 The Last Day of Summer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Last Day of Summer is the English title for Ostatni dzień lata, a film released in 1958, directed by the Polish film director Tadeusz Konwicki.
Meticulously shot, the film is profoundly symbolic and, despite the seeming inaction, quite dynamic thanks to the studied close-ups of the actors' faces and Jan Laskowski's camera work.
The Last Day of Summer turned Konwicki from a man of letters flirting with the cinema into a full-fledged director who helped lead Polish film-making beyond the era of Socialist Realism.
