An seinem einundzwanzigsten Geburtstag erhält Adam Nicolson von seinem Vater, dem Sohn von Vita Sackville-West und Sir Harold Nicolson, eine kleine schottische Inselgruppe: die Shiants. Gelegen an den äußeren Hebriden fallen ihre steilen schwarzen Klippen fünfhundert Meter tief in den kalten, nach mystischen, halb menschlichen Kreaturen benannten »Strom der Blauen Männer«. Robben tummeln sich an ihren Ufern. Hummer suchen sich ihren Weg durch Steine und Tang. Und am Himmel drehen Tausende von Papageientauchern ihre Runden. Auf diesen Inseln mit ihrer jahrhundertealten Vergangenheit, die von ruhelosen Geistern und Geschichten über alte Schätze heimgesucht werden, bietet sich Nicolson ein Ort der Zuflucht und der Einsamkeit. Sie werden ihm zur Heimat und offenbaren ihm »das Freiheitsgefühl, das einen auf einer wasserumtosten Insel durchflutet«. In leidenschaftlicher, zum Funkeln gebrachter Sprache zelebriert Seeraum die Landschaft dieses windgepeitschten, bezaubernd schönen Anwesens und teilt mit uns die Wunder der natürlichen Welt in all ihren Facetten und Paradoxien.
