The Sheltering Sky Summary

The Sheltering Sky by Paul Bowles

Some journeys are best left unmade.

Kit and Port Moresby are Americans abroad. Struggling to save their marriage, they resolve to trade civilization for the wilderness of the Sahara. At first, the pair are seduced by the desert's beauty. But beneath the exquisite landscape lurk the dark undercurrents of an alien culture, and the relentless dangers of a hostile natural world.

And as they travel deeper, they might not only lose their way.

They could lose their lives...
