Publisher's summary

At the age of 69, Jonas Barter embarks on an inspiring adventure to celebrate retirement and reassure himself that the old body in the mirror is still friends with the younger guy in the head. This quest becomes the story of a 2,000 km bicycle trip in Northern Africa. Along the way, in addition to the descriptions of remarkable places and improbable events, he drums up childhood memories, composes quirky short stories, writes lyrical poems (sometimes, as songs in this audiobook version), and presents moving perspectives on mundane things such as pain, tedium, history, skin, hair, wilderness, religion, and old age. It is a charmingly funny reflection on what makes us travel and what brings us home.
