'The Sheltering Sky is a book about people on the edge of an alien
space; somewhere where, curiously, they are never alone' Michael
Hoffman. Port and Kit Moresbury, a sophisticated American couple,
are finding it more than a little difficult to live with each
other. Endeavouring to escape this predicament, they set off for
North Africa intending to travel through Algeria - uncertain of
exactly where they are heading, but determined to leave the modern
world behind. The results of this casually taken decision are both
tragic and compelling.
