Description

Australia and New Zealand were imagined for thousands of years before they became real. Travellers, writers, map-makers and charlatans have dreamt of an other world on the opposite side of the Northern Hemisphere. The author reveals the allure of an antipodal world from the earliest Western writing to modern artists and writers.
