A fox, grown strong on pepperoni pizza from the dustbins of the East End, dances along a railway track towards Essex, the territory of wild foxes and wilder huntsmen. An orca, mourning the loss of her mother in a valley west of Skye, knows that she must now lead the pod as matriarch. She swims again through her childhood, thinking about the old ways, the old roads, laid down thousands of years ago. But the old roads aren't so easy now. At moonrise in a West Country river, an otter floats slowly downstream. The tide, though it pushes him landwards when it exhales, seems to pull him out when it inhales. He turns on his back. He can see the stars clearly for the first time and wonders if he can swim to them. The land has never stopped waiting. It has only ever been in exile, right under our noses, waiting to confound, outrage and re-enchant.

Ein poetisches Buch über die Akrobaten der Lüfte Mauersegler legen bis zu 50.000 Kilometer pro Jahr fliegend zurück, können im Flug schlafen, und wo sie sind, ist Sommer: Sie sind weitgereiste Weltenbummler; ihr Verhalten ist so faszinierend wie universell. Zwölf Monate lang folgt Charles Foster seinen Lieblingstieren. Er beobachtet, wie sie sich in Mosambik für den Flug gen Norden bereitmachen, verfolgt ihren Ritt auf dem Scirocco, der von der Sahara Richtung Mittelmeer fegt, und ihre Ankunft in Südeuropa. In England sieht er zu, wie die faszinierenden Vögel sesshaft werden und ihren Nachwuchs großziehen, um anschließend nach Afrika zurückzukehren.
