Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Author has signed title page (unverified).A spellbinding meditation on art and life that travels from Eastern Europe to Northern Australia, from World War II to the present. Elegiac and seductive,Belomor is the frontier where…truth and invention meet, where fragments from distant lives intermingle, and cohere.A man seeks out the father figure who shaped his picture of the past. A painter seeks redemption after the disasters of his years in northern Australia. A student of history travels into the depths of religion, the better to escape the demons in his mind. A filmmaker seeks out freedom and open space and looks into the murk and sediment of herself.Four chapters: four journeys through life, separate, yet interwoven as the narrative unfolds.In this entrancing new book from one of our most original writers, we meet European dissidents from the age of postwar communism, artists in remote Australia, snake hunters, opal miners and desert magic healers.Belomoris a meditation on time, and loss: on how the most bitter recollections bring happiness, and the meaning of a secret rests in the thoughts surrounding it. (back cover).

Softcover. Zustand: Very Good (Used copy). AUSTRALIANA Travel & Exploration Aboriginal -Wry and knowing, Wings of the Kite-Hawk is a set of linked journeys into the Australian landscape: its past and present, its people and its half-remembered secrets. In each chapter, Nicolas Rothwell takes a precursor and follows him. His guid…es are not only the famous explorers from the past, Leichhardt, Sturt, Strehlow and Giles, but also anthropologists and Hell's Angels: rodeo riders and artists. Vivid characters weave in and out of the story, intersecting, leading him on. Conversations move through light, laughter and sadness, while the overlapping explorations examine the different states of mind and heart. This is a book unlike any other written about inland Australia. As much fable as memoir, as much poem as momentary record., it resonates with strangeness and bitter-sweetness, with all the hidden patterns and suddenly revealed depths of life."If you're going into the bush, I mean really going, then you need a good hat - wide-brimmed, well-balanced."He picked one up from the pile inside the truck, and waved it with a sinuous motion before my eyes: "A hat like this one. Now this is my own design - the "Honest John" - the swagman's friend. Best hat there is in the world."I inspected it as he held it out, and a ghost of suspicion was born inside me."Your design?"You may not know it," he went on, "but bushmen are very particular about their hats. That colour - that brown - is what we call tan-bark. It's very popular with head stockmen on the big stations. The man at Wave Hill buys them from me. I have them specially made up, by Akubra. You'll see them everywhere. You can tell them by the bright feather in the hat-band. And they've got my name inside them too in gold letters."I knew, at that moment, knew for certain he was having me on. I laughed, put on a knowing expression, and flipped the hat over as he held it. And there it was - "Akubra - Honest John" - in stamped gold capitals inside the crown.Funny and knowing, and terrifically well-written, 'Wings Of The Kite-Hawk' is a set of linked journeys into the Australian landscape: its past and present, its people and its half-remembered secrets. In each chapter, Nicolas Rothwell takes a precursor and follows him. Not all the guides are great explorers of the past (Leichhardt, Sturt, Strehlow and Giles), but anthropologists and Hell's Angels; rodeo riders and Aboriginal artists.Vivid characters weave in and out of the story, intersecting, leading him on. Conversations move through light, laughter and sadness, while the overlapping explorations examine the different states of mind and heart that affect us all: love, loss, friendship, fear.Reminiscent of Bruce Chatwin's 'The Songlines', 'Wings Of The Kite-Hawk' will seduce and enthral and force you up from the comfy chair into the four-wheel drive. 327 p. ; 23 cm. #240126 (name on fep, light crease to cover) First Nations (AIATSIS) Subject: Culture - Relationship to land Art - Rock art Settlement and contacts - Explorers Arnhem Land (NT) Kimberley area (WA SD51, SD52, SE51, SE52) Northern Territory (NT) Gibson Desert (WA SF51, SF52) Subject: Rothwell, Nicolas -- Journeys -- Australia Australia -- Description and travel Australia -- Social life and customs Australia -- History Elizabeth's Bookshops have been one of Australia's premier independent book dealers since 1973.

Reminiscent of Bruce Chatwin's The Songlines, Wings of the Kite-Hawk will seduce and enthrall; it will force you out of the comfortable chair and into the wilds of the bush.
