Customer Reviews

Touching and thought provoking

A beautiful book about Liz Fuller's spiritual journey to Australia and the lessons she learns in the Outback. I could hardly put it down and was disappointed to have it end. The simple beauty of the wisdom shared by Max, her Aborigine friend and teacher, and the other people of his village, brought me to tears more than once. We should all be so lucky to take such a journey.

Fantastical story of a woman's spiritual healing in Australi

I read the book and then had the opportunity to meet and talk with the author at length. In and of itself, it is an easy and entertaining read. The story does seem a bit fantastic, but after speaking with Ms. Fuller, it is clear that these events did take place and had an impact on her life. (And yes, I did get to see the egg...quite fascinating!)

Fantastic

Elizabeth doesn't feel good after the dead of her husband. She decides to go to Australia and there she meets an aboriginal. She tries to live the way they live and starts to understand the meaning of life. Before I read this book I had problems with stress, but while reading it, I felt the stress falling of.

Fantastic story

Fantastic story of someone that makes a journey in Australia. You would want to go there directly.
