I started this book and put it down at least once before I finished it. It seems a bit disjointed. The over long first part is about her preparation for her journey, and it just doesn't have enough of a story or personal reflection to make it very interesting. The journey itself seems to be fragmented. Long parts of physical hardship; bursts of emotional highs and lows; detachment from reality and almost hallucinatory experiences. Some of these obviously so personally affected the author that she isn't really able to get them across objectively. It ends in a quick, almost embarrassed manner. Even though I sound rather negative, I did like this book, but not because it was a cohesive telling of a profound adventure and experience, but because I did enjoy going along on the adventure to the degree that she allowed it. I liked hearing about her camels, but reader beware, although the author's love for the animals is certainly expressed, there is a fair amount of violence and sadness here, too. For many reasons, this book will not appeal to the majority of readers.

It's not a book about some great adventurer looking to set a record or get recognition for traveling across the Australian desert alone. It's about a person who needs to find herself, and in turn find how she interacts with life, animals, the land, and humans. There is a lot about camels, a lot about how whites treat the Aboriginal people, a lot about how one has to make their own tracks to find out who they really are.

You can rarely find books like this anymore, since most of our true wilderness and desert areas have become diminished, destroyed, taken over by governments or big exploitation companies, or global warming. This is an amazing book in that a lone Australian young woman has the courage and tenacity to set out to do what most would consider impossible - cross 2000 miles of barren Australian desert with camels and a dog. While she does receive some external assistance, both financial (from National Geographic) and personal (from friendly ranchers and aboriginal settlements) on the way, for the most part she is on her own and, despite the harsh physical, emotional, and psychological challenges finishes her journey. What makes the book so interesting is not just the description of her journey, but her observations and thoughts on her life, her country, other people, and life in general. It's a real page turner, and never gets bogged down in boring or irrelevant details. A true adventure, and a wonderful story.

Robyn Davidson’s first courageous and creative act was walking 1,700 miles across the vast Australian desert with her dog and four camels; her second was writing this book. Davidson made her journey at the tender age of 27; I read about it another 41 years later, yet the telling is still as fresh and vivid as if she made the trip yesterday.For all its drama and danger, though, this is not a pretentious book. Davidson doesn’t over explain or make a big deal about taking on such an audacious and arduous trek: it's simply something she wants to do, and she does it. She keeps the focus on the journey, the landscape and her animal companions, narrating events like rampaging male camels in heat, dwindling water and supplies, and her and her animals many brushes with disaster. These mini dramas occur even as she relentlessly pushes on toward her goal of reaching the Indian Ocean before winter.Nothing about this travelogue feels workshopped. In an age of manufactured experiences, or memoirs touting treks as cures for modern ills, it’s refreshing to read an authentic and straight-talking adventure story. Through her, we experience a part of the world not accessible to us, and our horizons are expanded. Few expeditions like this are even possible, anymore, making this a timeless piece of nonfiction. “Tracks” is a beautifully written book of Davidson’s magical journey through a place of breathtaking and remote beauty.

Robin Davidson wrote her story for those of us who are still "too afraid or feel too "old" to make our own journey of self-discovery. Thank you Robyn for letting us join you and your wonderful camels and your very special dog as you made your way across the beautifully described land of the Aboriginal people.

Robyn is a young woman, when she travels the 2.000 kilometers of the Australian Gibson Desert, the late 60'es. She brings her four camels and her faithful dog. This is her raw and honest diary. Today, as an experienced writer, she's able to sit back and look upon her quest as something that happened to another person. She had the possibility of editing, polishing the corners of the original diary, something chose not to. The sharp contrasts between the aborigines and the white immigrants is described with a liberating bias; It's no secret where her sympathy lies. As she says in a recent interview: "the duty of an author will be to describe the reality she sees, as a detached spectator, before giving way to her personal viewpoint". The 2013 john curran movie "Tracks" is inspired of these real events.

This truly enjoyable and fascinating story has been brought to my attention through the waves of promotion generated by the film--upcoming or already available, I am not sure. Regardless, I am glad it somehow sifted out. It is different, a well-written tale of a brief but unusual episode of a woman's life. I think, actually, that it was the camels that hooked me in. Then there is the romance of an Australia I have never seen, and never will see--it's changed now. There's also the nostalgia for the era of time. Altogether, it was good.
