A reluctant debutante and a suburban misfit, rebels against society’s expectations in the 1960s, tell life stories of contrasting journeys yet the same dedication to personal visions of a meaningful life. After becoming instant friends in college, their paths soon diverged. Reconnecting over the internet years later, they tell each other about their lives—from half a world apart and spanning half a century. See the surprising beauty of Australia’s Central Desert, catch rewarding glimpses of life in the Aboriginal communities, watch a house rise from limestone rocks and land once damaged return to bush. Follow a heart longing for partnership and a dream straining for reality struggle through unexpected challenges. Be inspired to write stories about your life, whether you fulfilled your dreams or survived because of them, for the benefit of future generations.
