This book explores how, far from being limited to deviation from
known pathways or desirable plans of action, wandering is an
abundant source of meaning, as intimately involved in the history
of our universe as it will be in the future of our planet. In
ancient Australian Aboriginal cosmology, in works about the origins
of democracy and surviving disasters in ancient Greece, in Eurasian
steppe nomadic culture, in the lifeways of the Rom, in the
movements of today’s refugees and in our attempts to preserve
spaces of untracked online freedom, wandering is the means by which
creativity and skills of adaptation are preserved in the interests
of ongoing life. Astray is an enthralling look at belonging, and at
notions of alienation and hope.
