Riveting, funny, pointed, and poignant, the fortyfour essays gathered in this anthology speak eloquently of dreams, memories and sometimes the painful realities of the personal landscapes we call home. For most people, the notion of home is central to their lives; by the same token, there are a multitude of definitions of the word, many of them very personal and particular. These essays explore the different meanings and significances of 'home,' from a house where one grew up to a passion for a place. Not only do they provide fascinating and vivid glimpses into their authors' lives, but these recollections also invariably strike a chord with the reader. No matter how different from our own, each story touches us, eliciting reflection on our personal histories.Whether it's a young woman trying to achieve 'escape velocity' from a city she profoundly loves, another who muses while sitting on a bench near the apartment building where she grew up, a man realizing that what he had thought was home was really his mother's presence there, or an army brat whose family moved twelve times marveling at her mother's ability to make a home in each new place, they are all seeking, in some way, to go home. Thoughts of Home is about the places we remember and also the people we loveit is about nostalgia and acceptance, pride and humility.
