Bizarre, playful and hilarious

Observer

Murray Bail is the warmest and most quick-witted of storytellers

- Michael Ondaatje,

It's a pleasure simply to be immersed in Bail's caprice-prone mind

- Michael Upchurch, New York Times

Thirteen Australian package tourists set off around the world on the holiday of a lifetime. But as they trawl from country to country, through cities and round ever more obscure museums they find nothing as they expect it, least of all themselves. Homesickness is an enchanting novel: a wry, witty look at the ways people interact, a catalogue of comic digressions and tantalising information in which the world becomes a museum with no exhibit more bizarre than human nature itself.
