This is a mesmerising literary
novel. Questions of Travel charts two very different lives. Laura travels the
world before returning to Sydney ,
where she works for a publisher of travel guides. Ravi dreams of being a
tourist until he is driven from Sri
Lanka by devastating events.
Around these two superbly drawn characters, a double
narrative assembles an enthralling array of people, places and stories - from
Theo, whose life plays out in the long shadow of the past, to Hana, an
Ethiopian woman determined to reinvent herself in Australia .
Award-winning author Michelle de Kretser illuminates
travel, work and modern dreams in this brilliant evocation of the way we live
now. Wonderfully written, Questions of Travel is an extraordinary work of
imagination - a trans-formative very funny and intensely moving novel very
difficult to put down every chapter brings new people.
