Homesick Nomad

Settling into an Untethered Life

De: Brianna Madia

Narrado por: Brianna Madia

New York Times bestselling author of Nowhere for Very Long and Never Leave the Dogs Behind Brianna Madia considers putting down roots—but on her own terms—in this intimate and inspiring memoir.

Brianna Madia is beloved for her honest and enthralling accounts of life in the wilderness, finding her own way by rejecting society’s expectations, so what happens when she falls in love and has to reset the boundaries of her fierce independence?

Homesick Nomad finds Bri splitting her time between her beloved wild desert in Utah and her partner's cozy suburban home in the Pacific Northwest, reckoning with a new urge to soften into the embrace of the comforts of home with the fear of losing her independence. She’s not only defying convention to prove something to herself or to others—a simpler way of life out in the desert actually brings her peace, as she realizes when resisting “upgrades” to her trailer like running water.

Balancing the liberation of the wilderness with the natural compromises of love, Bri navigates these familiar tensions by embracing her life in its wholeness, richer for both the stability of home and the profundity of wide-open spaces.
