Items related to Antipodes
In the Gobi desert, a great prophet tells of a magical, eternal city to which the caravan will one day make its way. A replica has been built in the sands. Its name: Edinburgh. Elsewhere, a dying, cross-dressing pilot who fought at Ypres concocts a scheme to conquer Everest, somehow disappearing from the top of the mountain. These new myths leave us with the question: where is the end of the world?
