Celebrated as one of the few Australian writers who both lives within and can articulate the complexities and tensions that arise in the spaces between Aboriginal and settler Australia, Mahood writes passionately and eloquently about the things that capture her senses and demand her attention—art, country, people, and writing. Her compelling evocation of desert landscapes and tender, wry observations of cross-cultural relationships describe people, places, and ways of living that are familiar to her but still strange to most non-Indigenous Australians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt once a testament to personal freedom and a powerful argument for Indigenous self-determination, \u003cem\u003eWandering with Intent\u003c\/em\u003e demonstrates, with candor, humor, and hope, how necessary and precious it is for each of us to choose how to live.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kim Mahood","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42959923314806,"sku":"9781957363288","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/1374\/6550\/files\/CoreSourceHub_81e2783d-0ab1-4c2c-a845-2b221435c996.jpg?v=1767781190","url":"https:\/\/ingramacademic.com\/products\/wandering-with-intent-9781957363288","provider":"Ingram Academic \u0026 Professional","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
