Noa Avishag Schnall's debut book is nominally a travel memoir and photographic account about a road trip: sleeping every night in her car, as she navigates her way solo across Oman. But Homebound also depicts a deeply personal journey as her daily diaries intertwine with a decades-long family history which slowly unveils itself, powerfully resonating with today's headlines and political affairs throughout Western Asia. Every step she takes is a step in the past as well as the present. The journey she shares with the reader is a moving and honest human adventure, both introspective and outgoing. Noa Avishag Schnall is a Yemeni author, journalist, photographer and human rights activist based in Paris, born and raised in Los Angeles. Her work spans multiple continents focusing on amplifying stories of justice, resistance, and cultural celebration working with underrepresented communities.
