“There was almost a fairy quality to this place, he thought. The far look and the clear air and the feeling of detachment that touched almost on greatness of the spirit. As if this were a special place, one of those special places that each man must seek out for himself, and count himself as lucky if he ever found it, for there were those who sought and never found it. And worst of all, there were even those who never hunted for it.”

“Coll would be a heavenly place to be a child. There are beaches and boats, everyone knows you, it鈥檚 the kind of place you leave the door open. If you鈥檙e on the island, it鈥檚 know. If you catch the ferry to the mainland, well, that鈥檚 known about too. Should you have a mishap and require the air ambulance, a helicopter will have you in a Glasgow hospital in twenty minutes, by which time the island will have learned of your fate. A mere thirteen miles of single-track road separates 鈥榯he unspoiled end鈥� from 鈥楪od鈥檚 own country鈥�. There are local land feuds, a limited supply of fresh water, and no high school. In effect, the children leave home when they are an unfledged eleven, to travel as boarders to the secondary school in Oban. Higher education and jobs take them yet farther afield. It seems a price to pay for an apparently idyllic island life, to lose your children so young.”
