Nick Thorpe leaves Edinburgh one May morning and travels by boat through Scotland's canals, lakes and coasts, from the Clyde to the Shetland Islands. With humor and reflection, he encounters monks in a coracle, searches for Nessie and meets characters like Captain Calamity, in a narrative that blends travel, memory and a search for belonging.
