Lost Paradise

Cees Nooteboom

Alma and Almut share a fascination for Australia and its ancient\npeoples; their ceremonies, sand drawings and body paintings. After\nAlma suffers a traumatic attack, they board a cheap flight from S o\nPaulo to Sydney, and together begin their journey across their\nsecret continent. Alma slowly recovers through a brief love affair\nwith an Aboriginal artist, and both women become involved with the\nAngel Project in Perth, where actors dressed as angels are\nconcealed around the city for the public to discover. In a\nseemingly unconnected story, a man staying at a remote Alpine spa\nunexpectedly meets a woman he encountered years before and with\nwhom he shared a single night. It was in a faraway city and she was\ndressed as an angel.
