After the publication of The Short and Wonderful Life of Henry Hemingway - Fred's wildly humorous and hard-hitting memoir of his years in Berlin, the USA and Canada in the 1960s - he surprises his readers with an enchanting and tender travel and love story about a two year journey through India, Sri Lanka and Australia. Travelling with Maria is an entertaining book, a page-turner, full of amazing events like running away from wild elephants, meeting a goddess in a Hindu temple, exhausting negotiations with an extraordinarily helpful Indian customs bureaucrat, about love and friendships, a fortune in a biscuit tin, lunchtime striptease shows in Perth, crossing the Nullarbor Plain with a baby in an old Holden HR, about perfect peace and happiness in the middle of nowhere, an amazing man with a slightly damaged brain and two Land Rovers and a lot, lot more.
