Vagabond titles are literary works in original English. Novelists do not always resemble vagabonds literally (although many do), but like vagabonds, they are itinerant always mentally and often also geographically. They move quickly across a landscape, recording it, examining it and often misunderstanding it, because it is not the job of the novelist to utter the final truth on anything, but rather to go in search of small truths while leaving some work for their creative partners: the readers.
