Meetings and disagreements in Compostela

Two lost souls united by a single path. From Graeme Simsion, author of The Rosie Project , Lost in Translation is a captivating story of love, self-discovery, and second chances.

Northern Spain is home to the Camino de Santiago. A centuries-old pilgrimage route leading to Santiago de Compostela, the hundreds-of-kilometer journey is dotted with medieval towns and cities—as well as stunning landscapes—and attracts thousands of walkers every day, driven by faith or seeking self-discovery.

Zoe, a California artist mourning the recent and sudden death of her husband, and Martin, an English engineer who has recently separated from his wife, are searching for a fresh start. To overcome their recent losses, they decide to embark on a solo journey from Cluny, in central France, to Santiago de Compostela. Zoe is aware of the difficulties she will encounter along the 2,000 kilometers ahead, but little does she imagine that her greatest challenge is yet to come. For Martin, the pilgrimage begins as a test of skill and endurance, but as he progresses, he discovers that if he wants to reach his destination, he will need to rely on others—and on himself—again.

Two lost souls united by a single path. Together, Zoe and Martin will discover that the most arduous journeys are not those measured in kilometers, but rather those that test our strength and wisdom and connect us with true love.
