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 Sydneys underworld; from Sixties street life to the London literary scene; from migrating with nomads in Tibet to marrying an Indian prince Davidsons 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.
