Ci sono buchi in Sardegna che sono case di fate, morti che sono colpa di donne vampiro, fumi sacri che curano i cattivi sogni e acque segrete dove la luna specchiandosi rivela il futuro e i suoi inganni. Ci sono statue di antichi guerrieri alti come nessun sardo è stato mai, truci culti di santi che i papi si sono scordati di canonizzare, porte di pietra che si aprono su mondi ormai scomparsi, e mari di grano lontani dal mare, costellati di menhir contro i quali le promesse spose strusciano impudicamente il ventre nel segreto della notte, vegliate da madri e nonne.

In this compelling narrative, O'Connor seeks out neuroscientists, anthropologists and master navigators to understand how navigation ultimately gave us our humanity. Biologists have been trying to solve the mystery of how organisms have the ability to migrate and orient with such precision - especially since our own adventurous ancestors spread across the world without maps or instruments.
