Description
xEvery journey can take place in three realms: the interior, the one that takes place in time, and the one that passes through space. The one whose dimension is space fills the senses, the temporal realm, nourishes the experience, yet it is the inner journey, however, that is transcendental.
In The Book of Mistaken Journeys, characters begin a journey in which chance guides their individual stories as they build toward an overarching trajectory. Along disturbing narrative spiral, these eleven stories address exile, migration, and the search for an alternative future.Author: Clara Obligado
