Description

For 4 years Keenan and McCarthy were incarcerated in a Lebanese dungeon.

From the blank outlook of a tiny cell, with only each other and a few volumes of an ancient American encyclopedia to sustain them, they could only wander the wide open spaces of their imagination. To displace the ugly confines of their existence, they envisaged walking in the Andes and across the wastes of Patagonia. Five years after their release, they travel together through Chile, journeying by every means available through vast empty deserts, verdant plains and barren tundra. Between Extremes is the story of that journey which once more found them far from home, in an unfamiliar landscape, but which for the first time allowed them to live by their own rules.
