About this listen

New York Times bestselling author of Nowhere for Very Long and Never Leave the Dogs Behind Brianna Madia considers putting down roots—but on her own terms—in this intimate and inspiring memoir.

Brianna Madia is beloved for her honest and enthralling accounts of life in the wilderness, finding her own way by rejecting society’s expectations, so what happens when she falls in love and has to reset the boundaries of her fierce independence?

Homesick Nomad finds Bri splitting her time between her beloved wild desert in Utah and her partner's cozy suburban home in the Pacific Northwest, reckoning with a new urge to soften into the embrace of the comforts of home and the fear of losing her independence. She’s defying convention not only to prove something to herself or to others. Her stripped-down way of life in the desert is what steadies her—a truth she recognizes each time she resists “upgrades” to her trailer like running water.

Balancing the liberation of the wilderness with the natural compromises of love, Bri navigates these familiar tensions by embracing her life in its wholeness, richer for both the stability of home and the profundity of wide-open spaces.
