A JOURNEY INTO THE HEART OF AUSTRALIA.

Wry and knowing, this book is a set of linked journeys into the Australian landscape: its past and present, its people and its half-remembered secrets.  In each chapter, Nicholas Rothwell takes a precursor and follows him.  His guides are not only the famous explorers from the past, Leichhardt, Sturt, Strehlow and Giles, but also anthropologists and Hell's Angels; rodeo riders and artists.  Vivid characters weave in and out of the story, intersecting, leading him on.  Conversations move through light, laughter and sadness, while lthe overlapping explorations examine the different states of mind and heart.

This is a book unlike any other written about inland Australia.  As much fable as memoir, as much poem as momentary record, it resonates with strangeness and bitter-sweetness, with all the hidden patterns and suddenly revealed depths of life.

This 327 page softcover only has very light corner bumps, however the spine is uncreased and it is otherwise unmarked.  Internally there is light browning to page edges,  a small magazine cutout about author neatly taped to inside first page and a notation in pen next to it, but it is otherwise in a very good, tight, clean condition. 

Postage quoted is for within Australia. Overseas customer are more than welcome to email me for a postage quote.
