THE RED HIGHWAY

Book ID/图书代码: 01899508B25358

English Summary/英文概要: A key to unlock the heart of the country.
When we travel, we learn about ourselves. In The Red Highway, Nicolas Rothwell embarks on an inner journey while travelling through an amazing part of the world.
A travel memoir with a difference, The Red Highway offers a fresh vision of Australia, its deserts and ancient past, art and people. In it Nicolas Rothwell takes up three great themes, death, friendship and homeland, and weaves them into a rich account of a quest ­ a journey down the red highway.
After a spell reporting the Iraq War, Rothwell returns to Australia¹s north and starts to explore the deserts and towns of the north. He encounters some memorable characters ­ a priest, a shell collector, an explorer and an artist ­ each of whom sheds light on the nature of friendship or the nature of art. Slowly his account builds to an immensely powerful climax Š The Red Highway is a one-of-a-kind book. It is exotic and hypnotic, intense and haunting. It will appeal to readers of Bruce Chatwin and WG Sebald, Robyn Davidson and William Dalrymple.
