Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The Kerguelens isolated French islands in the southern Indian Ocean were the home of the Arch of Kerguelen, a 1,000foottall stone vault that had confounded navigators for centuries. JeanPaul Kauffmann finds poetry in the isolation and strangely serene beauty of this land far from the hustle of 'civilized' life, where the vast ocean dominates, where the wind reigns and solitude is interrupted only by animals scrambling in the windswept fields by the graves of those who journeyed there before.
