Close proximity to absolutely nothing.\u003c\/i\u003e\n\nIn 2020, lost and heartbroken, and with an unscratched travel itch thanks to international border closures, Sonia Henry accepted a job as a GP in the remotest part of Western Australia. The plan was to stay for one month. But before she knew it, this dressed-to-the-nines Sydney party girl was becoming an Akubra-wearing bush doctor, covered in red dust—and loving every minute of it.\n\nSonia spent the next two years working in some of the most remote parts of the country. She learned how to shoot in the middle of the desert, visited pearl farms and pubs, came to terms with being regularly outnumbered by crocodiles, and adopted a cattle dog called Buddy, who would become her closest companion. She also met an eclectic bunch of patients and friends, and opened her eyes to the truths—both good and bad—of the country she calls home.\n\n\u003ci\u003ePut Your Feet in the Dirt, Girl\u003c\/i\u003e is a modern outback medical memoir full of heart, energy, rage, and wonder.
