A teen Wanderer must choose between love and the rambling gypsy way of life she's always known when she falls for a "markie" boy. The signs portend doom if she stays, but is her desire worth almost certain destruction? |
Synopsis: |
NOW IN PAPERBACK!DAZZLING: Jessica Taylor's lyrical writing and intricate characterization have made her an author to watch.CRITICALLY PRAISED: Wandering Wild received a star from VOYA and other strong reviews.UNUSUAL FOCUS: There aren't many YAs about Wanderers, but there's a cultural interest in this society that's been historically ostracized. Wandering Wild tackles discrimination and distrust with nuance and emotional depth.A LOVE THAT WILL TEAR YOU APART: The forbidden romance between Tal and her townie beau is heart-wrenching. The sacrifice that Tal is willing to make for her younger brother, and he for her, is beautiful and tender and will leave you in tears.EMOTIONAL CONTEMPORARY IS HOT: Contemporary is back in a big way. Combined with a hint of magical realism, this one will stand out from the pack.WELL-CONNECTED: Taylor is part of an impressive author circle including Printz Winner and National Book Award finalist John Corey Whaley and Julie Murphy who blurbed her book.Taylor's next book, A Map for Wrecked Girls will release from Dial in August 2017. We expect it to channel sales for this edition. |
