Description de l’éditeur
Marco Gentolini wants to discover what he can about jade in Australia. It started after he visited the world’s biggest carving of a single piece of imported gem-quality green jade housed at the Buddhist Temple near Bendigo, where he was prompted to ask: is there any gem-quality jade in Australia? The experts say no. And no white jade either. But whisperings tell him otherwise. Quitting uni, dropping his girlfriend and leaving his lifelong mates behind, he takes to the road to find answers. He travels in the dark, but his desire is so strong. He finds helpers and companions who take him to unknown corners of the land. Marco compels us to ask whether we can believe all we’ve been told in the past. He writes his story in a unique and polished way worthy of the stone he has grown to love: ‘There’s jade and then there’s jade’.
