In the aftermath of Iceland's Lutheran Reformation in 1635, Jónas Pálmason - a poet, naturalist and self-taught healer - has been condemned to exile for heretical conduct. When his exile is suddenly revoked, Jónas finds himself swallowed and spewed from the mouth of a north whale, back onto the mainland.
