After a difficult break-up in his native Germany, Jan Bauer sets off for the Australian desert in search of himself. His 450 km journey takes him into the scorching hot centre of Australia. There he meets a fellow wanderer, the young French woman, Morgane. The two grow closer as step by step they traverse the tough and beautiful Larapinta trail's dry and salty riverbeds.

Industry Reviews

A beautiful and intimate book.' - Nicki Greenberg (creator of the graphic adaptations The Great Gatsby and Hamlet); 'The best German debut of the year' - Matthias Heine, Die Welt; 'Convincing honesty and charm' - Christian Endres, Der Tagesspiegel
