UNFINISHED WOMAN - ROBYN DAVIDSON KARTONIERT (TB)

'An astonishing  wonderful memoir of an extraordinary life' HENRY MARSH  author of Do No Harm
An unforgettable memoir from the author of the sensational international bestseller Tracks: the
story of a mother and daughter  of love  loss and the pursuit of freedom In 1977 
twenty-seven-year-old Robyn Davidson set off with a dog and four camels to cross 1 700 miles of
Australian desert to the sea. A life of almost constant travelling followed. From the deserts
of Australia  to Sydney's underworld  from Sixties street life  to the London literary scene 
from migrating with nomads in Tibet  to 'marrying' an Indian prince  Davidson's quest was
motivated by an unquenchable curiosity about other ways of seeing and understanding the world.
Davidson threw bombs over her shoulder and seeds into her future on the assumption that
something would be growing when she got there. The only terrain she had no interest in
exploring was the past. In Unfinished Woman Davidson turns at last to explore that long avoided
country. Through this brave and revealing memoir  she delves into her childhood and youth to
uncover the forces that set her on her path  and confront the cataclysm of her early loss.
Unfinished Woman is an unforgettable investigation of time and memory  and a powerful
interrogation of how we can live with and find beauty in the uncertainty and strangeness of
being.
