Intan Paramaditha
The Wandering - Listen
An ingeniously crafted novel by award-winning writer Intan Paramaditha, The Wandering is a literal choose-your-own-adventure story. It explores the highs and lows of global nomadism, the politics and privileges of travel and desire, and the freedoms and limitations of the choices we make. Depending on which pages you turn to, you could become a tourist or an undocumented migrant, a mother or a murderer, as you meet many other travellers with stories to tell. Shirley Le talks with Intan about an electrifying novel that turns the traditional adventure story on its head.
This recording is available on all major podcast platforms.
