The Rope Dancer

From Melbourne’s back streets and the Wimmera wheat fields, The Rope Dancer takes you on a compelling journey high into the Tien Shan - Central Asia’s Celestial Mountains.

“On the surface, it’s a rip-roaring yarn. Underneath, The Rope Dancer is an intriguing journey through the ideas of Friedrich Nietzsche and a modern re-telling of his great and confounding work, Thus Spoke Zarathustra. Unlike many commentators who focus on his nihilism, Leach’s interpretation of Nietzsche is life-affirming and passionate.”
