A description of our secondhand books is not always available. Please contact us if you have a question about this title. Author: Nicolas Rothwell Format…: Paperback Number of Pages: 278 A key to unlock the heart of the country This is the story of a quest - a journey down the red highway. On returning form a war zone, Nicolas Rothwell begins to explore the deserts and towns, sleepy coastline and hidden worlds of Australia's north. As he travels, his journey gathers momentum and finds a shape. He has unforgettable, even mystical encounters- with a nun, an explorer, a collector and a hunter. It becomes a quest - for knowledge and a sense of home - that builds to a stunning culmination. Nicolas Rothwell is among Australia's most gifted writers, and The Red Highway is a one-of-a-kind book. It explores death, friendship, travel and art, and evokes a unique and mesmerising part of the country. Rothwell's calm wondering at what he sees and hears on his travels left me with a feeling of enchantment. - ROBERT DESSAIX. Paperback.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The new genre-defying book from the two-time Prime Minister's Award winning author of Red Heaven and Belomor.A Siberian composer named Valentin comes to a remote roadhouse in the Western Desert to find the narrator of Yilkari, whom he first met the night the Berlin Wall fell. They travel on… together, leading us deeper into the desert in this mesmerising, unclassifiable book, co-written by the prize-winning author Nicolas Rothwell and his wife, the acclaimed artist Alison Nampitjinpa Anderson.Later, he takes us driving on hidden tracks in search of other characters and other stories that transport the mind. He visits the magic mountain, even though it is not on any maps, whose peak seems to draw the light into itself, the heart of life.Yilkari reveals its secrets, such secrets as it can reveal, through the conversations of its characters and their journeys into landscapes in which space and time are aspects of each other. Their exchanges touch on ways of knowing and speaking and imagining that are only within reach in the desert.The authors are both characters and guides. This is a book of strange coincidences, of intricate, interlinked dreamings, of chance encounters in living landscapes where the thread of sound is almost too faint to hear when the evening sun is low, the best time for telling stories.PRAISE-'A caster of spells.' Australian Book Review'Remarkable.' Age'This is a book that invites reflection and makes you wonder.A compelling read for anyone interested in literature that explores identity and spirituality.' Books+Publishing'Reading it once is just the beginning.' Stephen Romei, Saturday Paper'.beautiful, mesmerising, and form-defying novel.I found myself blissfully lost in the meandering journeys of Yilkari's characters and their deeply contemplative conversations.'
