Book Reviews of Outback
Book Review: Thank you for taking me to the Dreamtime
Summary: 5 Stars
Through Outback I entered a world that has existed past memory - an ancient race that has wisdom which all the centuries have only added to. I stepped out of the modern world as being my only reality and into a deeper reality. It reminded me of what has always mattered most - the integrity of the human spirit and its harmony with Nature. Anyone who enters the Dreamtime with the author will be challenged emotionally to find that harmony again in their lives. It is a tender work of love for a people shrouded in mystery and legend - and a tender love letter to our Mother Earth. I fell more in love with the planet and the life upon it through Outback - and I don't think there is any higher goal a work can achieve.
Summary of Outback
Outback is the story of how one boy's adventure became a hero's journey in the limitless Australian bush. From the jingle-jangle of carnival life to the overwhelming silence of the bush, Outback tells the true-to-life story of a boy who became a man, an unconscious teen who became a spiritual being, an Englishman who become Aboriginal in the timeless, unforgiving land that is Australia.Originally a critically acclaimed one-man play, directed by Jon Provost (Lassie Show) and funded by Charles Shultz (Peanuts), Outback has made the transition from theatre to audio book through Dal's gentle yet compelling narrative style.
