Songline of the Heart is a lyrical and deeply moving journey into the heart of Australia, exploring the country's ancient songlines and the stories they tell. Acclaimed author and adventurer Bruce Pascoe takes us on a pilgrimage along these songlines, from the rainforests of Cape York to the deserts of the outback. Along the way, we meet the Aboriginal people who have kept these songs alive for thousands of years, and we learn about the profound connection between the land, the people, and the stories.

Songlines are Dreaming tracks, paths that criss-cross the Australian landscape and connect the people to their ancestors and to the land. They are not just maps, but living stories that tell of the creation of the world, the journeys of the ancestors, and the laws that govern life. For Aboriginal people, songlines are a way of knowing and understanding the world around them.

Pascoe's journey along the songlines is a journey of discovery, both for himself and for the reader. He learns about the Aboriginal culture, the history of the land, and the challenges facing Aboriginal people today. He also learns about the power of storytelling, and the importance of listening to the voices of the land.

Songline of the Heart is a beautiful and inspiring book that will change the way you see Australia. It is a book that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.
