Amazon Book Description:
WITH A NEW POSTSCRIPT BY THE AUTHOR AND A STUNNING COLOUR PICTURE SECTION.
'I experienced that sinking feeling you get when you know you have conned yourself into doing something difficult and there's no going back.' So begins Robyn Davidson's perilous journey across 1,700 miles of hostile Australian desert to the sea with only four camels and a dog for company.
Enduring sweltering heat, fending off poisonous snakes and lecherous men, chasing her camels when they get skittish and nursing them when they are injured, Davidson emerges as an extraordinarily courageous heroine driven by a love of Australia's landscape, an empathy for its indigenous people, and a willingness to cast away the trappings of her former identity. Tracks is the compelling, candid story of her odyssey of discovery and transformation.

    This book was written so that Robyn Davidson's thoughts (on just about everything) could be heard. If anyone is looking for a book written by an overly opinionated woman, you should read Tracks. My wife certainly has.

    "Save" $5.62….I think the real saving here is being aware of this book & steering clear of it altogether.

    • So you've read it then? I'm bettibg the answer has two alphabetically-consecutive letters. No probs, you can always catch the movie.

  • I looked at the cover and thought it was about some camel loving.

  • I heard the lady interviewed on ABC radio Melbourne and bought the book with the 90% kobo code. Have not read yet but looking forward to reading it (and the 65 other books bought from kobo).
