Review
These poets have, like most homeowners, grown attached to their residences and the property around them, like Christopher Logue, who mourns for his dead tree; or Seamus Heaney, who finds inspiration in his skylight; or William Matthews, who has trouble leaving his old house.
Some of the most charming poems in the collection are the fables and fairy tales, which seem to come closest to exploring the more transcendental meanings of home. In fact, if there's a common theme among many of the poems in this strong collection, it's that home is a deeply private place we create and connect with. As one of the poems in Home expresses it: "How can we feel the unknown facets of ourselves without a parcel of hard property?" --Kris Law
