The Sheltering Sky

`โ€The Sheltering Skyโ€ 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. Endeavoring 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.
