Woman Alone

For fans of Cheryl Strayed's Wild and Elizabeth Gilbert's Eat, Pray, Love. At twenty-seven, Laine Cunningham seemed to have it all: tons of friends, a college degree, plenty of all-night parties, and a secure job. Yet every morning she dragged herself through a life that was corporatized and overly industrialized, a life that falsely glamorized everything she was supposed to want. Guided only by a map pulled from an old copy of National Geographic, she camped in the Australian Outback for six months…and she did it alone. Told with wry humor and sparked with suspense and warmth, Woman Alone conveys a desperate search that became a journey of comedy and compassion in a landscape that brought her peace.
