Book Overview
Wander features Sean Palfrey's beautiful, varied, and insightful travel photography and writings, exploring the joy of following a winding course. To wander is to travel without a fixed route or destination, to move expectantly through the world. Wander, the second volume in Sean Palfrey's photography book series, explores the joy of following a winding course.
Palfrey is a renowned pediatrician and child health advocate, who travels the world with his work and for pleasure. His fascination with people, places, and stories informs both his artistic and professional practices. Wander traces Palfrey's journeys across continents and cultures over five decades and features seventy photographs of remarkable places, from the mountain ranges of South Africa to the beaches of Chile, the woods of Canada to the deserts of New Mexico, to name a few. In the text accompanying each photo, Palfrey recounts his experiences and meditations in lyrical narratives.
Wander depicts and describes vastness, intimacy, beauty, and loss. Palfrey affirms photography's capacity to spark our imaginations: "Every photo here has a story, a backstory, a then-story, and a since-story."
