The stuff that dreams are made of--and it's all real. --"Kirkus Reviews" "Seasons of Sand" entertains right through its surprise, disturbing ending, and leaves one with a sense of an exotic place and its people--everything that can be asked of a good travel book. --Brad Newsham, "SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLER" Frank and humorous, filled with marvelous people and the details of his own daily life, Aebi's book tells an original tale. --"PUBLISHERS WEEKLY" With the guts of Hemingway and the erudition of Sir Richard Burton, Aebi's writing is pure exhilaration. Amazing grace under pressure and a graceful zaniness pressed like wild flowers between so many pages, the result is deeply moving, wildly funny, and profoundly impressive. --Paul William Roberts, "RIVER IN THE DESERT"
