Description
In an old wooden sloop, Philip Marsden sets off from his home in Cornwall bound for the Summer Isles, a small archipelago near Ullapool. Through the people he meets and the tales he uncovers, he builds a haunting mosaic of imaginary islands and the Celtic otherworld, the ageless draw of the west, the life of the sea and perennial loss - and the redemptive power of the imagination. An unforgettable account of the search for actual places, invented places, and those places in between.
