Description

Errant Destinations is a collection of nine literary chronicles in which contemporary Chilean- Jewish author Andrea Jeftanovic reflects on travel in its multiple variations, with reference to diverse fields of study, including references to cinema, literature, and the visual arts. This The interdisciplinary approach enhances the contemplation of historical, social, political, and cultural issues in contemporary society. Jeftanovic transforms travel into an art form, inviting the reader to participate in literary and geographical encounters in foreign places such as the tunnel that unites Sarajevo bombarded during the Balkan War; the diffuse maritime delineation between Chile and Peru; an organization for relatives of victims of the Palestinian-Israeli War; the hidden corners of Brazilian writer Clarice Lispector’s characters; the hotel room in Cienfuegos where Castro stayed in two distinct historical moments; and California of the 70’s, where the author endeavors to find Janis Joplin. Combining chronicle with fiction and testimony, the author employs written text is interspersed with photographic images, and narrated with a perceptive and personal gaze that reveals an extraordinary capacity to explore and reveal the many facets and recesses of the human psyche.
