Diamonds on the road Peter C Bruechle

"Ordinary things are seen with different eyes and diamonds of thought well up, usually unbidden."

Riding a motorcycle from Perth to Kununurra and back at the age of 72, Peter Bruechle's mind meanders from pressing topics like religion and politics, to past reminisces, to the charm and grandeur of our country.

The inward and outward journeys come together to present a timeless reminder of what is important in our world, and the vitality and clarity that come from putting ourselves in unusual, stimulating and sometimes challenging situations.

Readers will love the descriptions and photographs of our arrestingly beautiful landscapes as much as the digressions into the issues we all face.
