It is through Mariata that we learn much about the culture of the nomadic people of the Sahara region and about how this long tradition is under threat from modern politics. I found this particularly fascinating, especially in how women are regarded in the desert peoples' society. The road from Limone Piemonte to Monesi di Triora in the Italian Alps is ideal if you’re looking for a scenic and off-the-beaten-path road trip. This gravel road winds through the breathtaking mountains of Liguria for about 30 kilometers, providing a rare combination of adventure and natural beauty. Mrs. Johnson writes very well, and this kept me reading and even at times very engrossed in this book. The writing is extremely descriptive and at times even heart-rendingly powerful. The depiction of Tuareg culture, a subject completely unknown to me, was fascinating and not only well researched, but based at least in part upon the author's own first-hand experience. There are some gripping descriptions of intense emotion, and chilling accounts of desert struggles and atrocities. All of this was very well handled. Timetables show main stops. For routes with a return journey, you may need to scroll down to view details. Jizo statues, often wearing red caps and bibs, also grace the highway. This compassionate bodhisattva attained enlightenment but deferred Buddhahood to watch over travelers and children. They are also found in villages where they look after the spirits of deceased children.The Upper salt road takes you to discover a vast territory, straddling Italy and France, between mountains and sea. The selection of itineraries for family walks, long sporty rides, mountain bikers, and those who practice all wheels drive cars allows you to penetrate a territory that unfolds in three vast park areas. The road is punctuated by towns and villages that offer visitors a lot of breathtaking scenery.

Jane Johnson, as a writer, is well above my likes and dislikes. But then again, what was I expecting? To reach the road from the Italian coast, from Ventimiglia to Arma di Taggia, reach the village of Triora then reach the drop of Sanson by Realdo then by the step of Tanarel the Stazione Ingresso Via Del Sale, 18025 Briga alta CN. Service will divert after serving Bedwardine Inn – left onto Watery Lane, right onto Bransford Road, right onto A4440, right onto Bromyard Road and left into Tudor Way to resume normal route around the estate loop.A beautifully written story. Set in North Africa, there are two story lines here following two women, which are set about 30 to 40 years apart from each other but they might as well have been set centuries apart. Mariata is a remarkable character creation. Her story is full of passion and strength and explores the relationship between man and nature. The Salt Road is billed as a romance, and it may well be that readers who like romance writing will enjoy the love story set out across two separate timelines in this book. I wouldn't classify The Salt Road as a romance. I don't read romance as a genre. For me it's an adventure, set in an exotic location, painlessly educational, a travelogue... lots of things. I.e. it can be enjoyed on many levels. I'll attribute that enjoyment to the exceptional writing and to the intimate knowledge the author has in her subject matter. A book whose genre is hard to pin down and well worth an excursion from whatever genre keeps you occupied most! The story of Mariata and Amastan had to be my favourite of the two. Mariata was annoying at times as she was slightly arrogant at first, but after moving villages, she lightened up. From the start of her relationship with Amastan I could tell that something terrible was going to happen. Tana -one of my favourite characters- warned Mariata many times about Amastan but she was just too head over heels. I adored learning about the Tuareg and could only imagine the hardship of crossing a desert. Not something I would want to do but seen through others eyes, absolutely fascinating.
