Publisher's Synopsis
Deserts are the limits of humanity, known to be uninhabitable. Here the temperature ranges from sub-zero at night to forties or even fifties in Celsius during the day. Water is extremely scarce. It is a blazing oven of wanton violence, a chamber of death. A Blank Page is a book about a man long past his prime age with not much running experience to take on a race across the scorching desert for two hundred fifty kilometers, an event ranked among the top ten toughest footraces on earth. It is an epic of reflections on life with revelations and surprises. What is it that a man seeks, putting himself in such perils?
