[CX Dillhunt · Rating 4 out of 5]

This works; the poems & artworks are great together and separately--unusual. Readable, not a coffee table book, engaging, draws you in--you remember the poems & the pictures. Takes you home, makes you think, lets you enjoy.

[Ronald Wilcox · Rating 4 out of 5]

Nice collection of poetry juxtaposed to beautiful or haunting photographs or paintings / mixed media works that all evoke in their own way the differing concepts of Home for people. Many of the poems did little for me personally but others really hit .... Home.

Favorite for me The Accumulation by James Laughlin one page 95.

Many of the poems are misses for me personally, which is how poetry works, but the several "hits" make this book well worth a close read.
