About this listen
Bloomsbury presents Tracks by Robyn Davidson, read by Katherine Littrell.
A revised, reissued fortieth anniversary edition of this prize-winning, bestselling account of one woman's solo journey across 1,700 miles of Australian Outback
'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.
WITH A NEW POSTSCRIPT BY THE AUTHOR.

what an adventure!
One of the best stories. I was completely captivated. The film doesn't do the story justice. Some excellent insight into human nature.

Fascinating and absorbing book
I became completely immersed in the journey that Robyn Davidson made. Not only across Australian desert, but her emotional journey too. A well written insight into an extraordinary journey.

Gritty honest life searching
I really loved the telling of this amazing adventure, especially the way that Robyn it very much herself; she doesn’t seem to try and be someone who everybody else wants her to be. As a Christian. I was fascinated by her connections with something other than herself as she made her amazing journey across Australia. It’s like she was touching on the edge of finding God. I pray that she does discover him.
