- Unfinished woman : a memoir / by Davidson, Robyn,1950-author.;
In 1977, while she was in her twenties, Robyn Davidson set off with a dog and four camels to cross 1,700 miles of Australian desert to the sea. A life of almost constant travelling followed-from the Outback to Sydney's underworld; from sixties street life, to the London literary scene; from migrating with nomads in India and Tibet, to marrying an Indian prince. The only territory she avoided was the past. In Unfinished Woman, she ventures into that unknown, unearthing an ache for a lost but barely remembered mother and an unmet desire to feel at home in her freedom. Adventurous but guarded, fearless yet broken, Davidson asks: how can we live with pain and uncertainty, to find beauty in the strangeness of being? Unfinished Woman is a stunning literary achievement, inviting readers in as a world-famous wandering spirit is, for the first time, laid truly bare.- Subjects: Biographies.; Autobiographies.; Personal narratives.; Travel writing.; Davidson, Robyn, 1950-; Davidson, Robyn, 1950-; Davidson, Robyn, 1950-; Authors, Australian; Travel writers; Women authors, Australian;

Mia Wasikowska, Adam Driver, Lily Pearl.Mia Wasikowska stars as writer Robyn Davidson in this dramatic account of Davidson's arduous 1700-mile trek across the Australian desert. With only four camels and a loyal canine to keep her company on the journey from Alice Springs to the Indian Ocean, Davidson discovers the value of solitude while being reminded of how it feels to be truly connected with the world. In order to fund her epic adventure, Davidson reluctantly allows prolific National Geographic photographer Rick Smolan (Adam Driver) to capture it on film. Although at first Davidson's desire for solitude finds the disparate pair at odds, over time their adversarial relationship evolves into an abiding friendship.Canadian Home Video Rating: PG.DVD, widescreen (2.35:1) presentatation ; Dolby Digital 2.0.- Subjects: Davidson, Robyn, 1950-; Davidsonm Robyn, 1950-; Deserts; Feature films.; Solitude;
