"Nomadland: Surviving America in the Twenty-First Century" by Jessica Bruder follows the lives of a growing number of older Americans who have taken to the road in RVs and vans to find seasonal work, living a nomadic lifestyle as they travel across the country. The book explores the reasons behind these individuals' choice to live on the road, the challenges they face, and the communities they form along the way. Through in-depth interviews and immersive storytelling, Bruder sheds light on the harsh realities of modern American society and the resilience of those who choose to opt out of traditional modes of living.
