Pushing the Wave 2024 brings together a year of essays, reflections and travel writing by L.A. Davenport, enriched with drawings and photo essays from Europe and beyond. The latest volume explored themes of creativity, culture and connection: from finding 'flow' in daily life and questioning the allure of awards season, to grappling with limerence, freedom education and the risks of artificial intelligence. Davenport combines sharp cultural commentary with intimate moments of memory and observations, creating a vibrant mosaic of modern life.Journeys through Paris, Umbria, Antibes, Athens, Cuba, Houston and the northern coast of Ireland deepen the collection, offering fresh perspectives on place, history and belonging. At once thoughtful and lyrical, Pushing the Wave 2024 continues this rich series as a celebration of creativity, curiosity and the search for meaning in a restless world. Perfect for fans of Pico lyer, Oliver Laing, Alain de Botton and Rebecca Solnit-writers who blend travel, culture and personal reflection with a sharp eye for modern life.
