Abdussalaam Nordenhöks bok är en samling av reflektioner och grubblande texter av andlig och filosofisk natur. En utkastad flaskpost utan adress som bjuder in den nyfikne läsaren. Texterna kan betraktas som en inbjudan till den läsare som med öppenhet vill utforska sjösatta ord; utsända i ovisshet om vem som kommer att finna dem. Här får läsaren följa en personlig resa där islam speglas i en svensk samtid med både humor och allvar. Tematiken rör sig mellan högt och lågt, styrka och ömtålighet, och växlar mellan öst och väst. Genom ordlekar, dikter och kåserier skapar boken en plats för reflektion och förståelse och är en öppen inbjudan att smaka på fragment av liv och tankar.
