Once Upon a Time in the Dust

Thirty-five years into the Burning Man movement, there are now over 100 annual events around the world. In 2018, aid worker Roxane Jessi set out to experience seven of these events firsthand, to get to the heart of a culture that is creating community in a disconnected world. Her journey spanned five continents, from Afrikaburn to Black Rock City, Blazing Swan to Burning Japan, Fuego Austral, Midburn and Nowhere. This is the story of that eye-opening odyssey, and the first book of its kind to provide a glimpse into Burning Man's eclectic Regional Network.
