SHORTLISTED FOR THE ABIA 2024SELECTED AS A BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE GUARDIAN AUSTRALIA''The zigzagging life of an adventurer'' THE TIMES''An astonishing, wonderful memoir of an extraordinary life'' HENRY MARSH, author of Do No Harm''Exciting and complex, full of insight and humour'' SPECTATOR‘Enthralling, miraculous, clear as the brilliant constellations of the night sky’ SYDNEY MORNING HERALDAn 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 Sydney’s underworld; from Sixties street life, to the London literary scene; from migrating with nomads in Tibet, to ‘marrying’ an Indian prince, Davidson’s 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.''In her twenties, Davidson trekked 1,700 miles through the Australian wilderness. This led to the bestselling book Tracks and global fame. Half a century later she has written about what motivated her – including the tragic early death of her mother'' Simon Hattenstone, GUARDIAN
