Description
A deeply thoughtful, intimate yet political exploration of women’s free and unfree movement, sharing stories from refugees, disability activists and more.
‘Blanchard and Howlett “weaponi[ze] storytelling as a means of resistance” as they interrogate the dehumanizing labels the media uses to frighten native British citizens about the threats coming across the English Channel from France.’
'A searing examination of human mobility at the margins, in this age of criminalisation and violence against those who move in search of safety and opportunity.'
'Urgent and affecting, Wander Women brings forth extraordinary stories of courage and resistance.'
'Everyone should read this. Wander Women shows viscerally that we are all united by the pain caused by the patriarchy and our longing to be free. It takes a village to change the world--and I am more confident than ever that we can do it.'
'Wander Women explores the physical and social experiences of some remarkable individuals, navigating a bordered world and overcoming a complex intersection of vulnerabilities arising from war, migration, disability, sexual orientation, gender queerness and more.'
'Intimate and powerful storytelling through the voices of women on the move whose experiences and struggles are too often marginalised or ignored.'
Alexandra Blanchard is a writer, teacher and host of the podcast 'The Grand Thunk'. Alex Howlett is currently a reporter with Al Jazeera's Investigative Unit, and previously wrote for the 'Financial Times'.
