Summary Note "'Questions of travel' charts two very different lives. Laura travels the world before returning to Sydney, where she works for a publisher of travel guides. Ravi dreams of being a tourist guide until he is driven from Sri Lanka by devastating events. Around these two superbly drawn characters, a double narrative assembles an enthralling array of people, places and stories - from Theo, whose life plays out in the long shadow of the past, to Hana, an Ethiopian woman determined to reinvent herself. 'Questions of travel' illuminates travel, work and modern dreams in this brilliant evocation of the way we live now. Here is a novel infused with wit, imagination and a deep understanding of what makes us tick." - Back cover.
