Men and women became aware for the first time of the desolation of their streets, the dryness of their courtyards, the narrowness of their dreams as they faced the splendor and beauty of their drowned man. But they also knew that everything would be different from then on, that their houses would have wider doors, higher ceilings, and stronger floors so that Esteban's memory could go everywhere. they were going to paint their house fronts gay colors to make Esteban's memory eternal and they were going to break their backs digging for springs among the stones and planting flowers on the cliffs.
The author wanted to let us know that the villagers would imagine a fantacy world where this men was the perfect husband his wife , the perfect worker the perfect men . So they start to almost worship him with all the things they are doing to him or for him because he's dead. But made a very big change in their way of thinkining that changed the way the lived. And I believe thats exactly what the author wanted us to believe becuase he wrote it.
