Review

"This is an important book and a challenging one...A work of intelligence and spirit...A real achievement."

First line

In Alice Springs--a grid of scorching streets where men in long white socks were forever getting in and out of Land Cruisers--I met a Russian who was mapping the sacred sites of the Aboriginals.

Publisher's note

Part adventure story, part philosophical essay, this extraordinary book takes Bruce Chatwin into the heart of Australia on a search for the source and meaning of man's restless nature.

Annotation

Chatwin combines his own love for wandering the face of the earth with an examination of Australian aboriginal culture in this highly personal, lyrically written travel book by a master of the form.
