Vagabond Mother

Not
every Vagabond is a Castaway...
Maya
Galen’s oldest son, Jamie, left home eight years ago after a massive row with
his parents and now Joe, her youngest child and apple of her eye, has cut off
all contact with them too.
Called
to Australia to identify the body of a young man, Maya is given her son’s
journal. After a sleepless night she decides that the only thing she can do is
follow in Joe’s footsteps and try to discover her most basic human self. Eschewing a monetary lifestyle, from now on
she must rely on her physical and emotional strength to survive.
Following
Joe’s hand-drawn maps and journal entries, she travels from Australia to
Denmark and beyond, meeting many other travellers along the way and learning
valuable lessons.
Eventually
a crisis forces her to return home and confront the end of her marriage, but also
a new understanding of what family, in the widest sense, really means.
Exploring the big
questions at the heart of human existence, The
Vagabond Mother shares territory with books and films such as Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer, The Way, starring Martin Sheen, Wild: A Journey from Lost to Found by
Cheryl Strayed and Eat, Pray, Love by
Elizabeth Gilbert.
