5 + 5 = 1 (Endings)

The last paragraph is the physical end of the book as it is actually when it ends.

When they reach the sea they reach the end of their journey, this can be seen as the ending as the story is about their journey.

When the man dies, his narrative ends and changes to the boy.

The man dying can be seen as the end of the book because it is the end of his life and the book has been about his journey.

Both reaching the sea and the death of the man have links to the beginning of the book, it is retrospective.
