The Travellin' Sisters: field notes from the outback is a quiet celebration of Australia's landscapes, wildlife and the remarkable things we notice when we slow down.
Told through a series of carefully observed field notes, this verse novel follows Leticia and Vivianne, two women in their seventies, who travel Australia's back roads in an old white Toyota Hilux. They collect nothing except stories, birdsong, shared cups of tea, maps marked with possibility and reasons to return.
Their journey is not about crossing great distances but about paying attention. Along the way they encounter orchids beside wheel tracks, old fig trees that outlive the families who planted them, country bakeries, bird hides, bush camps, museums, campfires and countless acts of quiet kindness from strangers. As the kilometres unfold, the landscape reveals not only its birds, plants and seasons, but also the gentle strength of companionship, the wisdom that comes with age and the profound connections between people and Country.
Written in an original field-journal style, The Travellin' Sisters blends poetry, natural history and storytelling into a deeply Australian reading experience. It is a love letter to observation, curiosity and travelling without hurry.
Tender, thoughtful and quietly surprising, this is a book for readers who enjoy nature writing, literary fiction, poetry and stories that linger long after the final page. It invites us to look more closely at the world around us, and at one another, and reminds us that the smallest moments are often the ones we carry home.
