What lady would leave the beaten track? Why run the risk of illness, robbery and the unknown bush? Two travel writers and a professor talked to one another. Karin Anema ventured into the Surinamese interior, Ineke Holtwijk made her acquaintance with a recently discovered indian tribe in the heart of Brazil. Bert Paasman, emeritus professor of Colonial Letters, looked for the driving force of earlier explorers. Do Anema and Holtwijk understand their predecessors? Dutch spoken.
