Download To the Islands AudioBook Free
Behind the uneasy trees rose the hills, and beyond them again the country of the lost, huge wilderness between this last haunt of civilisation and the unpeopled sea. Tired and losing beliefs, an Anglican minister flees his objective in Australia's northwest for the vast emptiness of the outback. Inside the spirit country of the desert, the old man searches for the hawaiian islands of the Aboriginal deceased, reflecting on past transgressions and on his life's work. A Lear-like story of madness and destruction, publicized when Randolph Stow was only 22, To the Islands is powerful and smart - a poetic masterpiece.
