I Cross the Desert Alone

About This Novel

In 1975, Robin Davidson, a 27-year-old ordinary Australian woman, came to Alice Springs, Australia, to learn and understand the habits of camels and the related techniques of feeding and training them. Two years later, with that desire for the desert and self-exploration, Robin accepted financial support from the National Geographic magazine, took four camels and a dog, and embarked on a journey across more than 2,000 kilometers of desert in the hinterland of Australia. This is a journey of exploration and discovery in the Australian outback, as well as a simple and passionate spiritual adventure of a woman searching for herself and following her heart. During the nine-nine-month journey in the desert, Robin accepted the inner loneliness and physical deprivation, abandoned the original social shackles and prejudices, and continued to deal with drunkards and jealous ghosts. During the journey day after day, she began to gradually realize the vitality behind the wild land - tameness, richness, gentleness and generosity. She also began to think about the nature of life and its many possibilities. At the end of the trip, Robin said, "The journey is simple. It's no more dangerous than crossing the road, driving to the beach, or eating peanuts." She also believes that you are only as strong as you allow yourself to be.
