Set after World War II, it narrates the journey of Port and Kit Moresby, a young New York couple, and their friend Tunner through the desert of North Africa. Beneath the fascinating landscape lie the dangers of an alien culture and a hostile environment that gradually undo their certainties, leading them to the limits of reason.

For readers of literary fiction and twentieth-century American classics, with travel novels of oppressive atmosphere and existential undertones.
