Bill Holm, often called "the bard of the Midwest," takes readers on an excursion to islands both real and symbolic. He journeys to five physical islands: Iceland, Madagascar, Molokai, Isla Mujeres, and Mallard Island. And he travels to conceptual islands, including the Necessary Island of the Imagination, the whimsical Piano Island (located in a man-made lake under the atrium of an upscale hotel in the far interior of China), and the acute isolation of the Island of Pain. Writingwith the mind-set of a 19th-century traveler for whom the journey is as important as the destination, Holm appeals to the traveler and the philosopher in everyone.

Nel libro si racconta dell'isoletta dei Caraibi legata al culto della dea della fertilità, dell'Islanda culla di antiche saghe nordiche, della dimensione paradisiaca del Madagascar.
Una curiosità sul nome dell'autore di origine islandese scomparso nel 1999: nell'antico islandese Holm significa "isola". ( )
