When Amitav Ghosh began the research for his monumental cycle of novels, The Ibis Trilogy, ten years ago, he was startled to find how the lives of the 19th century sailors and soldiers he wrote of were dictated not only by the currents of the Indian Ocean, but also by the precious commodity carried in enormous quantities on those currents: opium. Most surprising at all, however, was the discovery that his own identity and family history was swept up in the story. Smoke and Ashes is at once a travelogue, memoir and an essay in history, drawing on decades of archival research.

奄美大島には、日本神話とは異なる体系の神話がある。奄美の神話では、女神アマミコと男神シニレクが降臨したのが、島の始まりという。降臨した地「アマンデー」は今も聖所として残り、それを拝む阿麻弥姑神社（あまみこじんじゃ）も建つ。なお、二神は降臨後島伝いに南下したというが、琉球神話開闢の神も天降ったアマミキヨとシネリキヨであり、酷似する。アマンデーと、琉球王朝の最高の聖所・斎場御嶽もよく似ていて、これらは琉球王朝の奄美征服により持ち込まれたとも、逆に奄美が発祥で琉球に伝わったともいう（アマミコこそ「奄美」の地名由来ともいう）。このような神話や、ノロ、ユタといった巫女の存在など、琉球と共通する精神文化は多い。ノロは、元々琉球王朝が各地域の統治の為に設置した女神官であるが、江戸時代以降、薩摩藩が直接統治するようになっても、村落の司祭として存続し、今でも一部で続いている。扇や勾玉など、その神具も独特であり、喜界島ではその装束が「天女の羽衣」として伝えられて来た例もある。天女は奄美群島では「アモレウナグ」と呼ばれ、喜界島には天女を祀る天降神社が建ち、奄美大島にも伝承が多数残るが、それはノロと、遍歴の遊女の双方につながっている。日本、琉球の古層文化に通ずる、奄美群島の「天降り」神話伝説を追う。

Dopo tanti anni Terzani non dimentica la profezia (che a suo modo si avvera...), ma anzi la trasforma in un'occasione per guardare al mondo con occhi nuovi: decide infatti di non prendere aerei per un anno, senza tuttavia rinunciare al suo mestiere di corrispondente.
