Synopsis

Marlo Morgan no tenia edad ni talante de aventurera, pero la realidad se le impuso con la fuerza y el poder que suelen trasmitirnos las grandes experiencias. Así fue como vivió una odisea fascinante: un viaje a pie por el desierto australiano en compañía de una tribu de aborígenes cuyas leyes de convivencia nada tienen en común con las nuestras. El aprendizaje fue duro, pues a lo largo de esa extraña peregrinación tuvo que desprenderse de sus antiguos hábitos y aprender distintas formas de comer, de caminar y de comunicarse para poder gozar de una autentica comunión con la naturaleza y con esa parte de su cuerpo y su mente que ella misma desconocía.
