About

Overview

A New York Times Bestselling Author
A Booker Prize Winning Author

Documentary filmmaker Shelby Apple is obsessed with reimagining the story of the Learned Man — a prehistoric man believed to be the link between Africa and ancient Australia. From Vietnam to northern Africa and the Australian Outback, Shelby searches for understanding of this enigmatic man from the ancient past. Some 40,000 years in the past, the Learned Man has made his home alongside other members of his tribe. Complex and deeply introspective, he reveres tradition, loyalty, and respect for his ancestors. Willing to sacrifice himself for the greater good, the Learned Man cannot conceive that a man, millennia later, could relate to him in heart and feeling.
