Publisher's Synopsis
'I have travelled more than three hundred miles since finishing my bowl of porridge. I sit at my window, attentive to the journey.'
In his sixth book, singlehanded sailor Roger Taylor stays ashore and turns his gaze towards the rugged Scottish landscape and rich wildlife visible through his loch-side window. Written as a kind of cosmic travelogue, the book reconciles the bleakness and beauty of the human condition.
